You can set up the parameters of mark/reference symbols without leader for the current graphic document in the Mark/reference symbol without leader section of the setting dialog box.

To access the section, call the command Settings — Parameters... and in the dialog box that appears, select Current document — Symbols for civil engineering — Mark/reference symbol — Mark/reference symbol without leader.

The dialog allows you to configure the geometric parameters of the mark/reference symbols without an leader line and font parameters. Using the line styles filter you can specify which line styles will be available when creating an object, set their sequence in the list and select the default variant, and using the shapes filter — customize the list of shapes.

Filter of line styles


List of lines

The list of names and samples of line styles is presented in the form of a table.

The last column of the table contains options that include the corresponding style in the list of styles available when creating an object. The option in the column header allows you to enable/disable all listed styles to be included in the list at once. It can be in one of three states:

enabled  — all options in the list are included (all listed styles are included in the list of styles available when creating an object),

undefined  — the list contains both enabled and disabled options (styles with enabled options are available when creating an object, and styles with disabled options are not available),

disabled  — all options in the list are disabled (none of the styles are included in the list of styles available when creating an object).

The first line style in the list has no option. It cannot be disabled, i.e. it is always considered enabled. Therefore, it is always available when creating an object.

1.2

Move up/down

The buttons allow you to customize the order of styles in the list.

To change the position of a style, select it and click the desired button. The selected style will move one position in the specified direction.

The order of the styles set in this section is passed to the list from which the line style is selected when creating an object.

To speed up the creation of objects in the document, it is recommended to put the line style that is used most often on the first position, followed by the other applied line styles in descending order of their frequency of use.

1.2

Search field

Allows you to find the required style in the list of line styles. All lines which cells contain the entered text are displayed in the search results list.

Form filter


Form filter

The list contains names and sample forms of mark/reference symbols.

To the left of the form names there are options that allow you to enable/disable the display of the corresponding forms in the Form list in the Parameter panel when working with mark/reference symbols without a leader line. The forms with the options next to their names are available in the document: they are included in the list from which the form type is selected when creating an object.

The option Without form does not have an option. It cannot be disabled, it is always available when creating dimensions in documents.

The option in the list header allows you to enable or disable the display of all types of shapes in the list at once. The option can be in one of three states:

enabled  — all options in the list are enabled (all types of forms present in the list are available in the Parameter panel),

undefined  — the list contains both enabled and disabled options (form views with enabled options are shown in the Parameter panel, while those with disabled options are not shown in the Parameter panel),

disabled  — all options in the list are disabled (only the Without form view is available in the Parameter panel, other forms from the list are unavailable).

If the state of an option is undefined, clicking on the option will disable it, the next click will — turn on.

Move up/down

The buttons allow you to customize the order of forms in the list.

To change the position of a form, select it and click the required button. The selected form will move one position in the specified direction.

The order of forms set in this dialog box is passed to the list from which the form type is selected when the object is created.

If the first or several first forms in the list are disabled, the first enabled form is the default one.

To speed up the creation of objects in the document,

it is recommended to put the form type that is used most often on the first position, followed by the rest of the applicable arrow types in descending order of their frequency of use
