Component Design and Representation in PARAGON : Reference Section : Setting P-Line Representation


Keywords:	REPRESENTATION PLINES LENGTH PKEY
Description:	P-line representation for structural Profiles may be set to ON or OFF. The default setting is PLINES OFF. When p-lines are on, the size of the arrow showing their direction is controlled by the LENGTH option. P-line identifiers, in the form of the settings of their PKEY attributes (TOS, BOS, NA, etc.) may also be displayed, as controlled by the PKEY option. As with changes to other representation settings, the graphics display is not updated instantly. Use the RECR UPDATE command to see changes to the display of p-lines.

Examples:


REPR PLINES ON	Sets the p-line representation to ON
REPR PLINES LENGTH 6	Sets size of p-line arrows
REPR PLINES PKEY ON	Shows p-line identifiers (settings of PKEY attributes)
