Combo Overlay

File:Combo overlay example.jpg

The combo overlay, displaying buildings with traffic flow.

The combo overlay is an overlay which can combine up to three grid overlays with boolean operators and can apply formulas to it. The list of available functions is given below. Combo overlays can also take other combo overlays as input. Another powerful combination is the use of combo overlays with average overlays (with or without an average distance).

Operators

In the table below are the operators displayed that are supported by the combo overlay. The term argument refers to a grid overlay, a numerical value or a global name.
