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).
