New
-
- Loading rules that are not based on the most up-to-date condition for a hole are now shown in bold and italics and tagged as '[Not updated]'.
- When holes are imported from BlastIQ™ without a Collar Elevation SHOTPlus™ will now:
- Clip holes to any existing, registered, bench surface; or
- If no registered bench surface is present, or the X Y coordinates of the hole fall outside the extent of the bench surface SHOTPlus™ will assign a Collar Elevation based on the average elevation of all holes in the plan; or
- If no registered bench surface is present, or the X Y coordinates of the hole fall outside the extent of the bench surface, and there are no existing collar coordinates in the plan a Collar Elevation of 0 will be assigned.
- When importing blasts from BlastIQ™ and the Hole Types and/or Material Types for existing holes do not match what is present in SHOTPlus™, users are now given the option to copy (or not copy) the Hole Types and/or Material types present in BlastIQ™.1
- Added the ability to view Design and Actual explosive decks as user defined colours in the SHOTPlus™ scene explorer.
- Option available from 'Edit' > 'Blast Properties' > 'Loading visualisation options'.2
Information
- Changing Hole Type and/or Material Type will trigger a re-application of loading rules where 'Reapply rules automatically' is turned on.
- Deck colours can be based on BlastIQ™ Display Colours where a plan is linked to a BlastIQ™ site or user-defined custom display colours. Default display colours are pre-defined for certain products when using the 'custom display colours'. Where no BlastIQ™ colours or custom display colours is defined, products will displayed using legacy colours.
