Solids Builder - Line

Line - creates a straight line passing through two points:

The Line activity has the following properties:

• Identification
  • Name - name of the activity
    The line name must follow the naming rules
  • Point 1 - name of the starting point of the line
  • Point 2 - name of the point end of line
  • Extend Start - a VB expression that stretches the start of the line:
  
  
  
  • Extend End - a VB expression that stretches the end of the line
  • Offset - an VB expression offsets the line from the axis formed by the given points of a distance in the XY plane
    
    
  • Object Visible - indicates whether or not the point should be drawn in the preview
    
    
• Offset Dimension
  • Offset Distance - distance of the dimension line from the points that form it
  • Dimension Offset - indicates whether to draw a dimension at the offset
  • Offset Template - a text template that provides the dimension
    Use <> for the dimension (Example: Offset = <>)
• Initial extension quota
  • Detachment from Initial Prol. - distance of the dimension line in relation to the points that form it
  • Dimension initial extension - indicates whether to draw a dimension on the initial extension
  • Prol.initial Template - a text template that provides the dimension
    Use <> for the dimension (Example: Start = <>)
• Final extension quota
  • Removal of Prol. End - distance from the edge of the dimension in relation to the points that form it
  • Quote Prol. End - indicates whether to draw a dimension on the end extension
  • Prol. End - a text template that provides the dimension
    Use <> for the dimension (Example: End = <>)

If the text gets too big/small, or the sphere that represents the point gets too big or small, use the buttons ( A, a, , ) at the top of the screen to change the preview
