measure modify range

Allows you to modify an existing range measure.
You can use range measures to obtain statistical feedback about any existing measure. Ranges dynamically calculate the maximum, minimum, average, or variation characteristics of any measure.

Format:

 
measure modify range
measure_name =
existing mea_range
new_measure_name =
new mea_range name
type =
range_type
of_measure_name =
existing measure name
create_measure_display =
boolean
legend =
string

Example:

 
measure modify range &
measure_name =
range_mea_angle_measure &
new_measure_name =
range_angle_measure &
tpe =
maximum &
of_measure_name =
my_mea_angle__1 &
create_measure_display =
yes &
legend =
"maximum angle between the links"
