Solids Builder - Line

Line - creates a straight line that passes through two points:

The Line activity has the following properties:

• Identification
  • Name - line name
    The one in the circle line must follow the nomenclature rules
  • Point 1 - name of the starting point of the line
  • Point 2 - name of the ending point of the line
  • Increase Start - a VB expression that stretches the beginning of the line:
  
  
  
  • Increase End - a VB expression that stretches the ending of the line
  • Offset - a VB expression distances the line from the axis formed by the informed points of a offset in the XY plane
    
    
  • Visible Object - indicates whether or not the point should be drawn in the preview
    
    
• Offset Dimension
  • Offset Distance - distance of the dimension line in relation to the points that form it
  • Show Offset Dimension - indicates whether to draw a dimension on the offset
  • Offset Template - a text template that provides the dimension
    Use <> for the dimension(Example: Offset = <>)
• Increase Start Dimension
  • Increase Start Offset - distance of the dimension line in relation to the points that form it
  • Show Increase Start Dimension - indicates whether to draw a dimension on the increase start
  • Increase Start Template - a text template that provides the dimension
    Use <> for the dimension(Example: Start = <>)
• Increase End Dimension
  • Increase End Offset - distance of the dimension line in relation to the points that form it
  • Show Increase End Dimension - indicates whether to draw a dimension on the increase end
  • Increase End Template - a text template that provides the dimension
    Use <> for the dimension(Example: End = <>)

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