Sets options for widgets (symbols) on a line for the line plus widget combination graphic rule. To set the line and fill style properties, go to the Graphics Tab (Graphic Rule - Line with Widget Dialog Box).

Widget Graphics

Specifies whether an aspect or symbol should be used as part of the graphic rule.

Aspect Properties

Aspect (Multi-Select)

Specifies one or more envelopes to display around objects. You can select multiple aspects by holding the CTRL or SHIFT keys.

Aspect Length (%)

Sets the length of the aspect as a percentage of the line on which it is placed. The valid range is from 0 to 100.

Aspect Height (%)

Sets the height of the aspect as a percentage of the height of the object. The valid range is from 0 to 500.

Widget Position (% along object)

Sets the positioning of the widget as a percentage of total length from the start of the line. The valid range is from 0 to 100.

Visible Line Style

Specifies the line style for visible edges of the aspect.

Hidden By Self Line Style

Specifies the line style for edges of an aspect that are hidden by itself.

Layer

Indicates the drawing layer (or level, if saving to a MicroStation file) on which the graphic is placed. For example, you would type LinesAndSymbols in the value field to place your symbol graphics on the LinesAndSymbols layer of your drawing. If the layer does not already exist in the template you are using to create drawings, the software creates the layer automatically.

For graphic rules used in the conversion to MicroStation files, the software only recognizes whole numbers between 1 and 63, inclusive, in the Layer field. Other values are ignored, and the object is placed on level 1 in the DGN file.

Show Centerline

Specifies whether the centerline displays in addition to the 3D graphics. If you reset this property to No, the Centerline Visible Line Style, Centerline Hidden Line Style, and Centerline Extension boxes display <Not Drawn>.

Centerline Visible Line Style

Specifies the line style for a visible centerline.

Centerline Hidden Line Style

Specifies the line style for a hidden centerline.

Centerline Extension

Specifies the length of the extension at the ends of a centerline.

Symbol Properties

Symbol

Specifies a symbol file. You can click More to open the Choose Symbol dialog box. Symbols are saved in the SharedContent share in the \Drawings\Catalog\Symbols folder. For more information, see Choose Symbol Dialog Box.

Widget Position (% along object)

Sets the positioning of the widget as a percentage of the total length from the start of the line.

Layer

Indicates the drawing layer (or level, if saving to a MicroStation file) on which the graphic is placed. For example, you would type LinesAndSymbols in the value field to place your symbol graphics on the LinesAndSymbols layer of your drawing. If the layer does not already exist in the template you are using to create drawings, the software creates the layer automatically.

For graphic rules used in the conversion to MicroStation files, the software only recognizes whole numbers between 1 and 63, inclusive, in the Layer field. Other values are ignored and the object is placed on level 1 in the DGN file.

Show Centerline

Specifies whether the centerline displays in addition to the 3D graphics. If you reset this property to No, the Centerline Visible Line Style, Centerline Hidden Line Style, and Centerline Extension boxes display <Not Drawn>.

Centerline Visible Line Style

Specifies the line style for a visible centerline.

Centerline Hidden Line Style

Centerline Extension

  • All line styles are found in the Styles.sha and IS Styles.sha file, located in the [Reference Data Folder]\SharedContent\Drawings\Catalog\Templates folder. You can add new line styles to this file.

  • Drawing view styles work in a top-to-bottom priority order. If an object finds its match in several different filters, the last graphic rule applied (bottommost row) is used.
