Defining holding pattern diagram settings

The Holding Pattern Entry Diagram (HPED) element is a graphical depiction of the holding pattern for a procedure. It is primarily used as a reference for how aircraft should enter a holding pattern.

New HPED elements are created based on the Holding Pattern Entry Diagram settings on the Element Settings pane of the Production Properties dialog box. These properties determine the default appearance and style of the newly-created HPED elements. Changing the settings does not alter existing HPED elements. Existing HPED elements can be updated by clicking the Holding Pattern Entry Diagram tool, which will regenerate the HPED element, reflecting updates to the data and/or the settings. The holding pattern portrayed in the HPED element is determined by the HPEntry_Code on the holding pattern master feature.
