it to be unique but you will get confused if it isn't!)

adjustment, the move line's colour, units and step are inherited
from the specified adjustment and cannot be altered in this edit

changing adjustment settings.
The percentage solidity of the move line (20, 50, 80 or 100%).

The colour used to draw the move line.

What you will get when you click on this depends on
the browser you are using. Some browsers will present
a colour chooser widget when you click on this. If
you're not so lucky it will probably get the chance to
enter the colour as a number like #008000 (that's the
value for the green move line shown above).
The units of adjustment for this move line. This is just text, it
doesn't feature in any calculations.
Units
When the solution is calculated, the resulting adjustment will be
a multiple of this value. So if you are using washers for the units
Step
of adjustment and you only have washers of one size, then a
step of 1 would be appropriate but if you also had some washers
that weighed half as much, then a step of 0.5 would be
appropriate because then the suggested amount of adjustment
would be to the nearest 1/2 washer.
This needs to be checked to see the move line on the polar chart.

This needs to be checked for the software to use this move line
when calculating the balance solution.

The None adjustment is provided for compatibility with jobs that were created by earlier versions
of the PB-4 UI firmware that didn't support adjustments.
3.7.1. Defining move line nodes
To define a move line, two nodes on the polar chart (Node 1 and Node 2) that
the line passes through need to be specified. The nodes are drawn on the
chart as coloured blobs that are slightly larger than the points. For each node
we can enter the following information:
If you want the node to be located exactly at the position of a
captured point, enter the point's index number here and the following
fields (Deg, IPS and Value) will be taken from the chosen point.
Point
The angular position of the move line node.
