Print Previous page Top page Next page

For point and vector objects, you can select the «Graphic file» display type.

The user must select the path to a graphic file (* .jpg, * .bmp, * .png ...) or a link to a picture on the Internet.

The object image can be set in semantics. For this purpose the user should choose semantics: symbolical or a file type and to set in it the path to the file or link to the picture.  In the presence of such semantics, the image of the object is taken from the semantics. If the semantics value is not specified, then what is specified in the dialog will be displayed.

For display, you can set: dimensions of the mark in mm and an attachment point relative to the upper right corner of the dimensions. If the width and height are defined for the mark, then when you set the Proportionally flag and change one size, the other one changes proportionally..

For specifying an attachment point it is possible to press one of the points showing type of the object attachment or to enter values of an attachment point.

Image can be supplemented with a frame, it is necessary to set the color and thickness for it. You can display a shadow for the image and specify a shift for it (right, down). When the Transparency flag is set, the color of the lower left pixel is removed from the image.

If the object has a two-point metric, when the rotation is enabled, the image will be rotated according to the metric.

For image, you can set a mask and a value of alpha channel.
