Purpose
Change the linetype on certain model geometries depending on layer, type and/or color when printing.
Syntax
SELECTION < LAYER> < COLOUR > < TYPE> </LINESTYLE>
Description
The Selection command allows users to change linetypes of geometries at the printing moment. The changes will be visible on the printed papers but the actual drawing will not be changed. To change the linetype of geometries a user has to select them by using color, type and layer of the lines that are to change. Any one or all of these criteria can be set as wildcards by giving an empty string as input (‘ ‘). Which linetype to change to is then defined by Linetype.
