At ‘Track menu > Leg analyse’ you will be able to display legs according to some values as well as return to the original presentation mode (no sections made).

From ‘File menu > Options > Tracks’, the user can set interval values for some of these legs, for example, fix distance of legs in meters or set time intervals in seconds.

 

Right clicking on a track you can access next ‘Leg’ functions such as:

 

     Change leg here: Right click on a track point and choose ‘Legs > change leg here’ to divide a track in two legs by that track point. You can divide the track in as many legs as you want.

 

     Leg properties: see the specific properties of that section of the track. Legs can be edited individually, changing color, thickness or line type. You can also add comments for each leg or create associations, like a video or images.

 

     Delete leg: Choose ‘Legs > Delete this leg’ in context menu of the leg to remove that section of the track.

 

     Copy leg: Using this option you will be able to transfer a leg to another compatible software with Land/Air, for example, an other Land/Air which is opened at the same time. Right click on the leg and choose ‘Legs > Copy leg’. Then in the second application choose ‘Paste’ from the context menu to add the copied leg. ‘Paste’ is not inside ‘Legs’ submenu but in general context menu.

 

     Save leg as: You can save a leg as an independent track.

 

     Unify all legs: All leg information will disappear and just an undivided track will remain.

 

     Unify continuous legs: This option unifies all the legs with don’t have any space between them. So if two legs are not joined, the will remain different legs.
