Drawing Properties of Profile Geometry
The property data of a profile library is defined in the PROFPROP file. The customer-specific profile libraries are located in the ../custom/proflibrary folder. The profile libraries provided by the software supplier are located in the ../system/proflibrary folder. Make a backup copy of the PROFPROP file before editing it.
The drawing properties of geometry are defined with the geomprop keywords in the following format:
geomprop= PARAM VALUE
Where PARAM is a parameter and VALUE is the value given to it.
You can define following parameters, for example:
| Parameter | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| MAT.COLOR | Color of a line in the drawing and model, when the color system is Material. The value is the number of the color in the file user/PMAP. | geomprop= MAT.COLOR 0 |
| TYPE.COLOR | Color of a line in the drawing and model, when the color system is Type. | geomprop= TYPE.COLOR 0 |
| MAT.SURF | Rendering material of a surface in the model, when the color system is Material. The value is the name of a material category. The material of the category is defined in the linking database of materials LWMAP. | geomprop= MAT.SURF PIECE.WOOD |
| TYPE.SURF | Rendering material of a surface in the model, when the color system is Type. | geomprop= TYPE.SURF PIECE.WOOD |
| MAT.SURF.WEB | Rendering material of a web in the model, when the color system is Material, and the profile shape is C, U or I. | geomprop= MAT.SURF.WEB SHEET.OSB |
| TYPE.SURF.WEB | Rendering material of a web in the model, when the color system is Type, and the profile shape is C, U or I. | geomprop= TYPE.SURF.WEB SHEET.PLYWOOD |
| MAT.SURF.FLANGE | Rendering material of a flange in the model, when the color system is Material, and the profile shape is C, U or I. | geomprop= MAT.SURF.FLANGE PIECE.WOOD |
| TYPE.SURF.FLANGE | Rendering material of a flange in the model, when the color system is Type, and the profile shape is C, U or I. | geomprop= TYPE.SURF.FLANGE PIECE.WOOD |
| SECT.FIG | Presentation method of the cross section in section views. With the value CROSS, the presentation method is a cross. | geomprop= SECT.FIG CROSS |
| SECT.FPROP | Drawing properties of the cross. The value is the name of a line in the system’s line settings. | geomprop= SECT.FPROP PIECE.SECT |
| SECT.PROP | The presentation method of the cross section in section views is a hatch. The value is the name of a hatch in the system’s hatch settings. | geomprop= SECT.PROP PIECE.WD |
