Description of setting


Line Filter

A group of controls to form a set of line styles available on creation and editing geometrical objects.


List of line styles

The list contains names and samples of line styles. Enable the options conforming to the styles which must be present in the Style list on the Parameters toolbar when handling objects. The Normal style is always available on the Parameters Panel and cannot be disabled.


Enable All

The option allows to enable/disable availability of all the styles contained in the list. It can be in one of three states:

enabled — all options in the list are enabled (on the Parameter Panel all styles present in the list are available),

undefined — the list contains both enabled and disabled options (styles with enabled options are displayed in the Parameters Panel, while those with disabled options are not),

disabled  — all options in the list are disabled (on the Parameters Panel, only the Basic style is available, the remaining styles from the list are not accessible).

If the state of the option is undefined, a click on the option will disable it, a second click will enable it.

Move Up/Down

The button allows for moving the style selected in the list one item up or down.

Rearrange list

The button allows for grouping the styles whose display is enabled in the upper part of the list.


Change List

The button allows to add custom line styles to the list or remove from it.


Remember the last style

The option controls the method for determination the default line style.

If the option is enabled, then to draw each next geometrical object the line style of the previous is used.

If the option is disabled, then the line style found in the first list item becomes default – the phrase "Default" are added to its name. If the first or several of the first in the list styles are disabled, the default is the first enabled style. The default style will be offered every time after fetching a command for designing a geometrical object. However, when designing several objects during operation of one and the same command the default style of drawing the next object is the line style used for the previous.

Having completed setup of using line styles, press the OKbutton. Click Cancel to discard all changes and close the dialog box.
