A symbol can be positioned on any geometry (line, arc or contour). The following

criteria has to be fulfilled in this case:

  • Automatic positioning must be on.

  • The symbol must have been defined with connection point no. 1. The connection code is interpreted by the system to give the following results:

    0

    No adjust

    1

    Parallel and at a default distance from the geometry

    2

    Parallel to the geometry.

    3

    At the geometry.

    4

    At the closest end point of the geometry.

    5

    Parallel and at the closest end point of the geometry.

    6

    Parallel to and at the geometry.

  • The distance between the closest geometry and the given position (connection point no 1) must be less than the default value (SYMB_AUT_DIST in the default file).
