CROSS

Purpose:

The Cross symbol is used to visualize an area of information in the drawing. It consists of two diagonal lines with a descriptive text positioned in the diagonal intersection.

Instructions:

1. The start and end positions of first diagonal line is defined by user. To remove a previously created symbol, select Edit, then Delete, then Last Entity at this stage.

2. Next, the start and end positions of second diagonal line is defined by user. Here, clicking Operation Complete means automatic adjustment of the second diagonal line:

   • if clicked when defining the start position, the second diagonal is automatically defined to make the resulting cross rectangular.

   • if clicked when defining the end position, this position will automatically be defined to make the resting cross semi-rectangular.

3. Finally, the descriptive text is keyed in by user. By clicking Options here, it is possible to change some characteristics (height, rotation, aspect, slant, interline space and font) of the resulting text.

Options:

None.

Result:

A cross component will be created in the current drawing, according to User's action.
