210 | Chapter 15 Creating Plan, Profile, and Cross Section Sheets
The following illustration shows view frames for the plan and profile view-
ports, and label frames positioned adjacent to the profile viewport.
Two other frame types, table and section, are used when creating section
sheet styles and when labeling non-graphical data, such as volumes.
The following is a brief summary of the various frame types.
Label Frame Positions labels to the sides, above, or below profiles
and cross sections. Typical labels inserted in label
frames include station and elevation along the bottom
of a profile or the grid elevations on the sides of the
profile.
View Frame Positions labels directly over the alignment or profile.
Typical labels inserted in view frames include plan view
alignment stationing or profile vertical curve
information.
Table Frame Used to create non-graphical labels on sheets, such as
area and volume information about cross section
sheets.
Section Frame Defines how cross sections are positioned on a sheet.
