Creating and assigning fiber slack to specific sheath results in a created vertex on sheath span, snapping center of slack element to that sheath. If additional fiber spans are drawn and design needs to be redrafted , moving sheath will move associated slack with that span AND/OR move the sheath from the vertex point, indicating that slack is associated to that sheath without needing a device review or analyze to verify link data.
Hi Emily,
Thank you for the feedback and for taking the time to submit this idea. We agree that making the relationship between fiber slack and its associated span/sheath more visible would improve the editing and redesign workflow.
As part of an upcoming release, we are enhancing the existing Locate > Slack functionality. The planned improvements will allow users to:
New - Select a slack and automatically highlight its associated span.
Existing - Select a span and automatically highlight the associated slack(s).
This should make it much easier to identify and verify slack-to-span relationships without needing to perform additional reviews or analyses.
We appreciate the suggestion and the detailed use case, as it helped validate the value of this enhancement.
Thanks, Francis
