Vehicle and Block Colors

Colors in the Vehicle Assignment screen provide vehicle and block information.

Vehicle number colors in the top pane of the screen indicate whether vehicles are in service, will be in service, or are no longer in service. Vehicle icon color indicates vehicle type.

Block colors in the lower pane of the screen indicate which blocks aren't covered as of the screen Context time. Red dotted lines are used to show canceled blocks.

To see which text colors are used for vehicle and block records, you can view the Color Legend in the Vehicle Assignment screen.

In Block Characteristics, tag symbols are used to indicate the daily attributes that apply to each vehicle. The color of the symbol(s) in the Vehicle Daily Attributes field match(es) the color(s) defined for the associated daily vehicle attribute(s).

Other color settings can be defined in system properties by a system administrator.
