Topic: generating linetype results in error

[Kerry]

Note:
I haven't included Document Locking in my testing.
I assume you will do this at a location where the locking will affect the database modifications more generally.

would it be possible to set the upright parameter for the text, like you can do with a .lin file

Perhaps try something like :

Code - C#: [Select]

1.  
2.      ltTR.SetShapeRotationAt(1, 90 * Math.PI / 180);
3.  
4.  

OR

Code - C#: [Select]

1.  
2.      ltTR.SetShapeRotationAt(1, 45 * Math.PI / 180);
3.  
4.  

at code line 54

Or if you can make and post the .lin file I'll try to reproduce the style in code.

[sybold]

Code: [Select]

*HOT_WATER_SUPPLY,---- HW ---- HW ---- HW ---- HW ---- HW ----
A,.5,-.1,["HW",STANDARD,S=.1,U=0.0,X=0.0,Y=-.05],-.3
the U parameter is the rotation as stated in the documentation the U can also be R and A, depending of what you want

Rotation
The rotation angle of the characters to be displayed in the linetype. The rotation angle must be prefixed with U=, R=, or A=.
U= specifies upright or easy-to-read text.
R= specifies relative or tangential rotation with respect to the line.
A= specifies absolute rotation of the text with respect to the origin; that is, all text has the same rotation regardless of its position relative to the line.

the setshaperotation doesn't have the option for a rotation type

I can't make time to play, but here's something to think about :


*TEST-R15,testR15 ---- R15 ---- R15 ---- R15 ----
A,12.7,-5.08,["R15",STANDARD,S=2.54,R=15.0,X=-2.54,Y=-1.27],-5.08

*TEST-U15,testU15 ---- U15 ---- U15 ---- U15 ----
A,12.7,-5.08,["U15",STANDARD,S=2.54,U=15.0,X=-2.54,Y=-1.27],-5.08

*TEST-A15,testA15 ---- A15 ---- A15 ---- A15 ----
A,12.7,-5.08,["A15",STANDARD,S=2.54,A=15.0,X=-2.54,Y=-1.27],-5.08
