Change the hidden zone subject coordinates

Aim

To specify the coordinates of the subject when it is in the hidden zone.

When a subject enters a hidden zone, its body points are assumed to be in the center of the hidden zone. However, if you have a very large hidden zone, the distance the subject moves from the entry zone to the center of the hidden zone every time it enters the hidden zone, contributes rather significantly to Distance moved. In these cases, you can “move” the coordinates of the subject near the entry zone.

Prerequisites

You have defined a hidden zone. See Shelters and other hidden zones.

To set the hidden zone subject coordinates

1.Right-click the hidden zone label and select Hidden Subject Coordinates.

2.Now, select one of two options to set the hidden subject coordinates:

Center of the zone, unless the center is outside the zone (then it is the arrow tip location). Select this option when you have a small hidden zone (for an example, see A).

Arrow tip location. Select this option when you have a large hidden zone (for an example, see B).

 

A. Default situation; the hidden subject coordinates are at the center of the hidden zone, thereby making a large contribution to the Distance moved.

B. The hidden subject coordinates are set to the arrow tip location, thereby minimizing the contribution to the Distance moved.
