2D Visualization of Pedestrian Traffic
Set the global settings for the entire network via menu VIEW – OPTIONS –
[PEDESTRIANS] – CONFIGURATION, cf. section 7.3.3.1.
If option Area-based has been checked for display of aggregated values: The
LOS scheme selected in the global settings can be overruled by the LOS
scheme selected for the display type of construction elements. Both settings
can be overruled by the LOS scheme selected for a particular area or ramp
or stairway, if applicable.
If option Grid-based has been checked for display of aggregated values,
the global settings cannot be overruled by different settings for a selected
display type or for selected elements. In this case, different LOS schemes
selected by display type and/or construction element will be ignored.
If option Area-based has been checked for display of aggregated values, you
can select a different LOS scheme for a certain display type of areas and
ramps or stairways via menu BASE DATA – DISPLAY TYPES – [PEDESTRIANS], cf.
section 5.5.2.
Alternatively, you can select None to exclude all construction elements of this
display type from the LOS visualization. Their static color/texture will be used
for display instead.
The LOS scheme selected for the display type of construction elements is
overruled by the LOS scheme selected for a particular area or ramp or
stairway, if applicable.
If option Area-based has been checked for display of aggregated values, you
can set a different LOS scheme for a single or multiple construction

In the Visualization section, select either Display type or a different LOS
scheme for Aggregated values display. To exclude a single or multiple
construction element(s) from LOS visualization, uncheck the option
