Category
Load properties are divided into different categories: Standard and Weight and CG. You can select the category to define values for by using the Category option.
Type
Specifies the load definition. Selecting More in the drop-down list displays options for defining the load.
Standard
Name
Specifies the name of the load.
Name Rule
Select a name rule to use to name the load. Select User Defined if you want to name the load yourself.
Parent
Specifies the parent to which the selected load belongs. The parent determines the placement of the load within the load hierarchy. Selecting More in the drop-down list displays the Select Load Folder Dialog.
Magnitude
Specifies the force of the load. The magnitude can be a positive or negative value, as needed, and is applied in the direction that you selected in the Direction box.
Direction
Select the direction in which the load magnitude is to be applied. You can place loads in any of the six directions: Forward, Aft, Port Side, Starboard, Up, Down, or User Defined.
X
Specifies the X-coordinate of the unit vector representing the force of the load.
Y
Specifies the Y-coordinate of the unit vector representing the force of the load.
Z
Specifies the Z-coordinate of the unit vector representing the force of the load.
XPosition
Specifies the X-coordinate for the position of the load.
YPosition
Specifies the Y-coordinate for the position of the load.
ZPosition
Specifies the Z-coordinate for the position of the load.
Permeability
Specifies the permeability of the cargo compartment.
Stowage factor
Specifies the stowage factor of the cargo compartment.
Volume
Specifies the volume of the cargo compartment.
Stack limit
Specifies a stack limit value for the cargo compartment.
Weight
Specifies the weight of the cargo compartment.
Weight and CG
Dry Weight
Displays the dry weight of the object.
Wet Weight
Displays the wet weight of the object.
Dry CG X
Displays the X-coordinate of the center-of-gravity for the dry object.
Dry CG Y
Displays the Y-coordinate of the center-of-gravity for the dry object.
Dry CG Z
Displays the Z-coordinate of the center-of-gravity for the dry object.
Wet CG X
Displays the X-coordinate of the center-of-gravity for the wet object.
Wet CG Y
Displays the Y-coordinate of the center-of-gravity for the wet object.
Wet CG Z
Displays the Z-coordinate of the center-of-gravity for the wet object.
