Panel Precedence by Polylines

This command allows you to quickly assign precedence to mine panels by drafting directional polylines which indicate the direction of precedence. Before the command is executed, a polyline must be drawn on the PRECEDENCE layer. The vertices of the polyline must exist inside the panels, as shown below. It is important to note that a vertex must exist inside each panel perimeter (a polyline with only 2 vertices will only modify 2 panels).

When the command is executed, you will be prompted to select the panels to be modify, follow by the Precedence polylines. You will then be prompted if the precedence panel is Advance or Retreat, followed by a prompt to assign the precedence rule to the Advance or the Retreat of the target panel.

An example Setup is show below. In all three cases, the Main Panel must be mined before R1, R2, and R3.


The resulting Precedence rule for Panel R3 is shown below. In this example, we assigned the Advance of panel R3 <3:E> to the Advance of Panel R1.
