• 5HFW : will compute and store the fourth and final point that
forms a rectangle or parallelogram after three points are
stored with a description associated with
Rect .
Note: At any time, the line type for any linework command can be
changed while collecting linework for a particular feature. For
example, a feature called FENCE might primarily use the
Line
linework command, but might also contain a curved section. To add a
curve to the fence, you would use the Ctrl-L hotkey to open the Auto
Linework screen and toggle
Line to R-Crv prior to storing the first
point of the curve. Once the second point of the curve is stored, the
curve is defined and appended to the FENCE polyline. This routine
is enhanced with the
Props command, described below.
;
On : When checked, activates the associated linework command. If
a particular polyline is created and then this is unchecked for that
linework command, future points stored with the same description
would not result in any change to that polyline. But if this is then
activated again later, all future points collected using the same
linework command will be appended to the original polyline.
End : toggles between the following two functions, giving you control
in collecting data for two or more separate features that use the same
linework command:
When the map icon is displayed for this button, a polyline has
been created for the associated linework command. Tapping the
button will then allow you to detach future points using this linework
command from the current polyline, resulting in future points being
added to a new polyline.
If the button is blank and the current job contains at least one
polyline, you will be prompted to select an existing polyline. Once
selected, future points stored with this linework command will be
appended to the selected polyline.
Props : A single polyline can contain different
line types. The Props command will open the
Auto Linework Properties dialog box, shown
here, where when the checkbox is checked, the
linework command will always switch back to
