"Object properties" palette


There is a defined set of parameters for each graphic object in the process D2000 GrEditor. These parameters are displayed in the palette Object properties. The palette contains some parameters, which are common for several objects (e.g. line color, fill color, line width etc.) and also object dependent parameters (text effect for objects of Text type, 3D for 3D objects, ...).

The palette allows to set parameters of the graphic object in advance of creating the object, or at first to create an object with any parameters and modify them later according to the requirements.


The button is displayed when user selects more objects. It allows to copy the graphic object properties defined in the Object properties palette to the other objects, which are selected in the object selection. Clicking the button enables to copy the parameters of active graphic object to the other graphic objects in the selection. The parameters are copied only for the graphic objects, which are the same type as the active object. The following parameters are not copied: position, bitmaps and membership in graphic object groups. For graphic object of Multiline and Polygon types, the size of the objects remains unchanged.


The button causes opening the Connect object palette. This functionality works also vice-versa, i.e. in the Connect object palette opens Object properties palette.


If user does not choose any object, the default parameters of graphic objects can be edited in palette Object properties. Then, the new objects are created according to them. Text in title bar is: "Object properties - Default properties".


This palette also displays the layers.


The palette Object properties, in dependence on the graphic object type, can contains the following tabs.


TabParameters included in the tab
SizeChange size and position of the graphic object.
LinesSet line parameters - line color, style, width, fill color, pattern, line end, line join....
TextSet text parameters - font, color, text effect, frame, plotting direction....
BmpSelect or modify a bitmap - color of monochromatic bitmap, dimensions....
TableSet table parameters - number of rows and lines columns, first row height, first column width, drawing 3D frame.
Layout managerDefine a behaviour of individual graphic objects or a selection of graphic objects in the picture when it is resized in process D2000 HI.
3DSet size and colors of 3D graphic objects.


Note:
The following description of the tabs of Object properties palette is not comprehensive. Depending on the object type, some of the parameters, displayed in the tabs, could be disabled.
Parameters used especially for specific type of graphic object are described in particular topic describing the graphic object in details.


Size



  


Object

X, Y

The parameters defines a position of the graphic object in the picture (distance of the object corner left bottom from the picture corner left bottom). They depend on the type of the graphic objects. For example: rectangle - corner left bottom, circle - centre, line - 1st point, polygon - 1st edge, etc.


Other position parameters

X, Y - Right

The dimensions determine a position of the n-th (entry to the left of X) point of the object in the graphic picture. Positions 1 and above can be changed, and the change is affected by the setting of selection >>. If the option is not set, only the point is moved. If it is set, the following points are also moved by the size of the change of the n point.


DX, DY

Selection of gradient is done by selecting from the window. 


Paletka Vlastnosti objektu - výber gradientuImage Added


Where 1 and 2 correspond to 1st and 2nd color in black and white version. The top right button is drawing without a gradient, and the other buttons represent a drawing for the gradient. The blue color button corresponds to the status when opening the selection.



First gradient color and coverage

The color copies the setting of the object's fill color. The coverage defines the object's transparency. The parameter ranges from 0-100, where 0 is the zero coverage, object is transparent and 100 is complete coverage - the object is opaque.

Next, there is a setting for the second gradient color and coverage. The second color can be set from the ESL script by the %HI_SetBackColor2 function.

The use of the gradient effect can be enabled-disabled from the ESL script by the %HI_Set_PaintEffects function.


Warning: When using the gradient effect, the width of the graphic object dimensional line remains unchanged even if you use a zoom.

Pattern

Selection of a fill pattern of the graphic object. Clicking on button with corresponding pattern will fill the graphic object with this pattern in the color defined in the parameter Fill. The sample can only be selected if the gradient fill is not used and the object has a 100% coverage. 


Note relating to D2000 Thin Client

Thin Client supports only full pattern.

For more rules see the page Drawing rules and object properties for D2000 Thin Client.


Round

Setting of a radius level for the corners of the graphic objects (0-99). The value of 0 means, that the corners will not be rounded. Option 4 allows you to define the rounding of each corner separately. 


Note relating to D2000 Thin Client

Round is not supported in Thin Client.

Layout manager


Object properties palette - Layout manager

Ratio

When an object changes its size, it keeps an initial aspect ratio (width-to-height). A calculation takes the ratio of the displayed picture to the original picture according to the least maximization (or the highest minimization) in one of the picture sizes.


Action after changed picture width

No action

The graphic object keeps its width - no change.       


Ratio change

The graphic object changes its width and position according to the displayed picture-to-original picture ratio. (Picture Settings - Size - Width).


Ratio position *

The graphic object changes its position (tab Size - parameters X, Y) according to the displayed picture-to-original picture ratio.


Keep at right margin

The graphic object keeps the distance from the right picture margin during changing the picture width.


Change width *

The graphic object changes its width according to changing the picture width. If a new width is negative number, the graphic object will be invisible.


Ratio position (center)

The graphic object changes its position (tab Size - parameters X, Y). New position is calculated so that the position of the object centre is changed according to the displayed picture-to-original picture ratio.


Action after changed picture height

No action

The graphic object keeps its height - no change.


Ratio change

The graphic object changes its height and position according to the displayed picture-to-original picture ratio. (Picture Settings - Size - Height).


Ratio position *

The graphic object changes its position (tab Size - parameters X, Y) according to the displayed picture-to-original picture ratio.


Keep at bottom margin

The graphic object keeps the distance from the right picture margin during changing the picture height.


Change height *

The graphic object changes its width according to changing the picture width. If a new width is a negative number, the graphic object will be invisible.


Ratio position (center)

The graphic object changes its position (tab Size - parameters X, Y). New position is calculated so that the position of the object centre is changed according to the displayed picture-to-original picture ratio.

Zoom

If marked, it enables to use the transformation functions from Windows. If not, the size parameters are calculated by HI process.


* The parameters are ignored for the graphic object of the types Polyline, Dashed polyline and Rectangle.


Note 1: The tab is available in case that the parameter Resize with layout manager is checked in dialog window Picture settings.


Note 2: Behaviour of an graphic object of Text type depends on its configuration. Example: size of such a graphic object is changed only if the button Button Rectangle (in all rectangle) is pressed.


Note relating to D2000 Thin Client

Layout manager does not work for each object. It works for the graphic objects Rectangle, 3D button, Bitmap, displayers Browser, Graph, Picture, widows controls Tab control, Push button, List box, Check button, Radio button, Tree view, Text (only the area in which is the text), Text entry field in D2000 Thin Client.
