REPRESENTATION PLINES LENGTH PKEY
Description
P-line representation for structural Sections may be set to ON or OFF. The default setting is PLINES OFF.
When p-lines are on, the size of the arrow showing their direction is controlled by the LENGTH option. P-line identifiers, in the form of the settings of their PKEY attributes (TOS, BOS, NA, etc.) may also be displayed, as controlled by the PKEY option.
As with changes to other representation settings, the graphics display is not updated instantly. Use the REPResentation UPDATE command to make changes to the display of p-lines visible.
