UNDERLAYPLOTNAME

ISODRAFT Reference Manual

Command Reference Section : Alphabetical Command Reference : UNDERLAYPLOTNAME


Function:	Allows the user to plot ISODRAFT’s output on top of background plots previously created in an AVEVA E3D™ drawing module.
Description:	The user can superimpose an ISODRAFT PLOT file onto an underlay plot. This facility is used, for example, for underprinting isometric plots with company-standard drawing sheet information. The user can specify up to eight underlay plots, giving them numbers so that they can be switched off if required.
Examples:	UNDERLAY /BKGRNDS/STYLE1 The drawing stored in the file /BKGRNDS/STYLE1 will be plotted on the same sheet as the next isometric plot. By default, this will be underlay number 1. UNDERLAY /BKGRNDS/STYLE2 2 The drawing stored in file /BKGRNDS/STYLE2 will be plotted on the same sheet as the next isometric plot.
	UNDERLAY OFF The plot given as underlay 1 will not be plotted with the next isometric plot. UNDERLAY OFF 2 The plot given as underlay 2 will not be plotted with the next isometric plot. UNDERLAY OFF ALL No underlay will be plotted.
