ShapePolyline
These properties control ShapePolyline visualizations. For each property, the type of control and the values that can be assigned are listed, along with the property identifier and allowed values for use by the iTools Procedural Interface. For a description of how a particular control is used, refer to Property Controls.

Allowed Values |
|---|---|---|---|
| Transparency |
Number: Transparency of the ShapePolyline from 0% to 100%. Move the slider to change the value. Default = |
TRANSPARENCY |
Integer from 0 to 100. |
| Color |
Color: Color for the ShapePolyline. Click to choose from the default color palette, or specify RGB values. Default = |
COLOR |
3D integer array of the form: [R, G, B] Each color value may range from 0 to 255. |
| Line style |
Line Style: Style for the ShapePolyline. Select a style from the list. Default = |
LINESTYLE |
An integer value specifying a predefined line style, or a two-element vector specifying a stippling pattern. The predefined line styles are: 0 (Solid line--the default) 1 (Dotted) 2 (Dashed) 3 (Dash dot) 4 (Dash dot dot dot) 5 (Long dash) 6 (No line drawn) To define your own stippling pattern, specify a two-element vector [repeat, bitmask], where repeat indicates the number of times consecutive runs of 1's or 0's in the bitmask should be repeated. (That is, if three consecutive 0's appear in the bitmask and the value of repeat is 2, the line will have six consecutive bits turned off.) The value of repeat must be in the range 1 <= repeat <= 255. The bitmask indicates which pixels are drawn and which are not along the length of the line. Bitmask is most conveniently specified as a 16-bit hexadecimal value. For example, LINESTYLE = [2, 'F0F0'X] describes a dashed line (8 bits on, 8 bits off, 8 bits on, 8 bits off). |
| Thickness |
Line Thickness: Thickness for the ShapePolyline. Select a thickness from the list. Default = |
THICK |
A floating-point value between 1.0 (the default) and 10.0. |
| Z value |
Number: Z value of plane on to which to project the shape polyline visualization. Edit the number to change the value. Note - If the Z value is zero then the shape polyline visualization is considered to be 2D. If the Z value is nonzero, then the shape polyline visualization is considered to be 3D, and the dataspace associated with this shape polyline will be automatically switched to 3D.
