The Query Calculation Area or Solid command is used to view and edit the information associated with calculation areas and photometric solids.

To view and edit these items, go to

Ribbon: DM Electrical->Point-by-Point Photometrics-> dm_elec-photo-queryLOO Query Calculation Area or Solid

Pulldown Menu: DM Electrical->Point-by-Point Photometrics->Query Calculation Area or Solid

You will be prompted to identify which calculation area boundary or photometric solid is to be edited.

Select calculation area boundary or light-obstructing object:

Depending upon your selection, one of the following dialog boxes will appear.
