   • Choose the Calculate length based on measure columns option if you want the measure length column to be calculated based on subtracting the From Measure column from the To Measure column.
   • Choose the Calculate length by subtracting physical and measure gaps option if you want the measure length column calculated by excluding any physical and measure gaps in the event.

   Note:

   If the networks in the map have the route name configured, this option will be unchecked by default. If the networks do not have the route name configured, this option will be checked by default.
