Line properties dialog box (2D)

Select to the drawing or to the sketch added or line properties selected to edit. Select the line properties in the fields of the dialog box.

Dialog box options

Select the line properties in the fields of the dialog box.

The editable properties depends on the selected elements. If the selected elements have different properties each other, the field is cleared. If you leave the field empty, the elements keep their different properties. If you select a new property in the field, it will affect to all selected elements.

Element properties

Layer
Select the layer on which the line is drawn.
Pen width
Select the line width value.
Line Type
Select line type. A an example, Continuous, Dashed line.
Scale
Select Scale /Gap
Color
Select the color by clicking Palette button.
Bending line
Select Bending line. Edit the bend properties by selecting the Change values.
Change values
Edit values, in the Bend properties dialog box, and select OK.
Copy
Click the button, and select in the drawing the line which properties is copied to the line selected to edit.
Bendline
Vertex G4: Defines the line as a bend line. Define it´s properties by clicking the Change Values button.
Fixed
Defines the line fix in the drawing to a position, in which it is, when the line properties is selected to edit. The fixed line retains it´s position, when geometric constraints are solved.
You can release the fixed line by leaving this check box cleared. If you select the checkbox Fixed, also the Direction fixed checkbox will be selected.
Line fix affects only when solving geometric constraints. The line will remain it´s original position. However, you can edit the geometry of the line, stretch the line from it's handles or trim, for example.
Direction fixed
Defines the line fixed so that the direction of the line retain, when geometric constraints are solved, but the position of the line can change.
Constraints
The geometric constraints defined in the drawing is displayed as a list. Unsolved constraint is highlighted in red color.
If you select the constraint on the list, the elements connected to the constraint is highlighted in the drawing.
Edit the value of the dimension constraint by first selecting the constraint from the list. Then enter the new value in the Value field. You can also define to the dimension contsraint a formula in the Formula field. When you click the Apply button, the change is updated in the drawing, and the geometric constraints resolved.
Side of the Distance, Angle or Tangent constraint you can change by the button Change chirality.
Click the Delete button to delete the selected constraint.
You can stretch or maximize the dialog box in the vertical direction so that selecting constraints from the list is easier. You can stretch the upper edge bottom edge of the dialog box. You can maximize the dialog box to fill the screen from top to bottom with the Maximize button.
Apply
Update edited changes made in the dialog box in the drawing. Geometric constraints of the assembly are resolved.
