Change the Visual Properties

The Drawlist form allows the Colour, Edges and Translucency of displayed items to be modified.

• Colour

  The color of all selected items in the Drawlist can be changed by selecting from a colour palette; which is displayed when the Colour button is clicked.

• Edges

  The Edges option can be used to display edges on the selected items, or to remove edge display on selected items.

  Note: The current element will be displayed in the current element color and so will be unaffected by color changes until another element is made current.
  When modifying the visual properties of a top-level element in the Drawlist, lower level elements in the list owned by this element will also be modified.

• Translucency

  Setting the translucency of displayed items allows you to see through the translucent items to items behind them in display. The degree of opaqueness can be controlled selecting the required percentage translucency on the slider bar. On this scale, 0% is a solid color and 100% is completely transparent.

  Note: The items drawn with translucent color may appear to overlap with each other in some view directions, which is not a problem, it is an effect of viewing one translucent item through another. It is often better to draw translucent items with edges shown for a clearer view of the item.
