Geometry Styles  

This section deals with geometry styles. These let you define the default values that will be used when creating geometry. 
 

Defining Geometry Styles

Geometry styles are located in the following nodes of the Standard Definition editor, available via Tools > Standards:

By default, a style called Default is available for each geometry style.

All the parameters associated to a given geometry style are listed in a dedicated table. The Description column provides a description of each parameter.

All parameters are taken into account both at creation time (i.e. when creating a geometrical element), and at modification time (i.e. when reapplying a style to a geometrical element).

   
 

ConstructionPoint Style

Parameter Name

Description

Color

Specifies the color that should be used to represent construction points.

Point Type

Specifies the type (e.g., cross, dot, etc.) that should be used to represent construction points.

   
 

ConstructionCurve Style

Parameter Name

Description

Color

Specifies the color that should be used to represent construction curves.

Line Type

Specifies the number of the linetype (as defined in the LineTypes node of the current standard) that should be used to represent construction curves.

Thickness

Specifies the line thickness index (as defined in the LineThickness node of the current standard) that should be used to represent construction curves.

Control Points > Color

Specifies the color that should be used to represent control points in construction curves.

Control Points > Point Type

Specifies the type (e.g., cross, dot, etc.) that should be used to represent control points in construction curves.
