This command labels the slope percent at user Screen Picked points
or Surface Points. Surface Points can work well on grid files, (.GRD),
but is typically too much information for triangulated surface files
(.TIN or .FLT).
The slope is computed from the surface model file (.TIN, .GRD, or
.FLT).
As the
crosshairs
are moved across the grid, the slope at the current position is
displayed
in a floating dialog box.
In addition to labeling the slope
value
at the user specified points, a Leader Arrow can be drawn in either the
uphill
or downhill direction. The dialog also facilitates the
specification of Label Prefixes and/or Suffixes, Decimal Precision, and
Slope Format.
