BEFORE_SYMBOL_TEXT Statement

  • Last UpdatedDec 12, 2023

The texts in bevel notes are normally placed after the bevel symbol, supposing the bevel is symmetric, that means, there is only one "draw text". The BEFORE_SYMBOL_TEXT statement may be used to define a text to the left of the symbol.

Syntax:

BEFORE_SYMBOL_TEXT, <bevel_no>
     [/<var_key>=( <b_text>, (1...10))] (1...6)
     ;

The attributes have the following interpretation:

<bevel_no>

The basic bevel type for which the definition is valid.

<var_key>

The attribute that defines the variant of the bevel type for which the text should be valid.

<var_key>::= VAR_0 |
             VAR_1 |
             VAR_2 |
             VAR_3 |
             VAR_4 |
              VAR_9

<b_text>

The number of a previously defined basic text (cf. the BASIC_TEXT Statement). Up to 10 basic texts may be combined. The text may be split into two parts (above and below the reference line) by reference to a (non-exiting) basic text 0.

Example (without reference to the basic texts above):

Example:

BEFORE_SYMB_TEXT, 10,
         /VAR_0 = (1, 2)
         /VAR_1 = (3, 0, 4, 5)
         /VAR_2 = (4, 5, 0, 3)
         /VAR_9 = (4, 5, 0, 6, 7)
         ;
