-
Planar Projections: OUTLNR, OUTLTS, OUTLOS
-
Cross-section projections: CRSNR, CRSTHS, CRSOS, CRATHS, CRSAO
-
This side/other side for stiffener traces: TRCTS, TRCOS
Relative Location
Description
General Outline
General line type for model elements displayed in a planar projection, for example, a bracket.
Example: plate boundaries, bracket boundaries, stiffener boundaries in side view. This line type does not give any relative location information.

Outline this side
Line type for model elements displayed in a planar projection that are on this side of a related model element, for example, an attached plate.
Example: clips on this side of a plate.

Outline other side
Line type for model elements in a planar projection that are on the other side of a related model element, for example, an attached plate.
Example: clips on the other side of a plate (drawn dashed).

Trace this side
Trace curve of model elements attached to a plate/surface on this side.
Example: Profile trace on this side of a plate (drawn solid red).

Trace other side
Trace curve of model elements attached to a plate/surface on the other side.
Example: Profile trace on the other side of a plate (drawn dashed red).

Cross section
General line type for model elements displayed in a cross-section view without any relative location information.
Example: cross-section view of a bracket or a plate.

Cross section this side
Cross section view of model elements on this side of other model elements on (or close to) the location plane.
Example: Cross section of a profile on this side (drawn solid red).

Cross section other side
Cross section view of model elements on the other side of other model elements on (or close to) the location plane.
Example: Cross section of a profile on the other side (drawn dashed red).

Cross section abutting this side (within configurable tolerance)
Cross section view of model elements abutting on this side of other model elements on (or close to) the location plane.
Example: Cross section of a profile (drawn solid red with thick line weight).

Cross section abutting other side (within configurable tolerance)
Cross section view of model elements abutting on the other side of other model elements on (or close to) the location plane.
Example: Cross section of a profile (drawn dashed red with thick line weight).
