This routine takes two adjacent pits or blocks and
merges them to create just one. Routines such as Pit Matrix Layout can
sometimes leave small
irregular shaped pits along complex boundaries. Usually, the user would
like to
combine or add a small sliver of a pit with an adjacent one so that the
volume
is reported, but not as its own tiny pit. Pick first in the pit
you want to
keep, then in the pit you want to remove. A new polyline is drawn
around
both, representing the new pit with the same name as the first pit you
picked
inside of. The last step is to simply erase the text of the smaller,
deleted pit
(if they were labeled). If a pit is selected on or near a line, then
the pit is highlighted and you are prompted to hit Enter to accept the
pit or press N to highlight the other nearby pit. The volumes are
combined if they are stored in the pits as values.
Pick inside 1st pit polyline to merge:
Pick inside 2nd pit polyline to merge:
