viewshed height ranges

i know the original design for the view shed tool was for radio towers, but it works great for visual studies. i would like to have the ability to show % vissible of the transmitter or recever on the viewshed. this would allow me to show what % of pole is vissible. often a seen unseen is to basic. if anyone knows how to script this to run multiple viewsheds from a point for each 10% of the total height it would be apprecated

Otherwise you can simply click on a point multiple times to run the same view shed repeatedly and just input a different tower height each time to see where that height and above of the tower is visible from.
Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Would it be easy for you to add attributes to your points with the desired transmitter heights? If so, I think I could pretty easily update the generation of view sheds from multiple selected points to use a transmitter height from an attribute rather than using the entered one, thus allowed you to easily generate multiple view sheds with varying heights in one operation.

I did update this process to copy the attributes of the selected points to the new tower points for the calculated view sheds. I have placed a new build at http://www.globalmapper.com/global_mapper11.zip with the change for you to try. Simply download that file and extract the contents into your existing v11.xx installation folder to give it a try. If you are using the 64-bit version, there is a new build available at http://www.globalmapper.com/global_mapper11_64bit.zip .
Let me know if I can be of further assistance.
