Editing of image for mixed objects

Mixed (template) - one of types of objects presented on an electronic map.

Template - the complex conventional symbol, combining in various combinations the titles, a lines and symbols. As an example of template the title of the characteristic of vegetation, the bridge, etc. can serve.

For creation of template it is necessary to create sample of necessary components of template: a font, a symbol and a line. Creation and editing of these components occurs at pressing by the left  mouse button in a window with image of a corresponding element. At creation of template the font is created only. In windows of a line and a symbol the cross specifying absence of object is displayed. If the line participates in the template, press by the right mouse button onto a line window. In the appeared menu (line, empty) choose Line item. Input of line parameters occurs at pressing by the left mouse button onto line window. If the symbol will participate in the template, press the right   mouse button onto a symbol window. In the appeared menu (symbol, vector, TrueType, empty)  choose a necessary element. Input of symbol parameters occurs at pressing of the left mouse button onto symbol window. If the template will be not horizontal, establish a necessary flag. At arbitrary position of template, the symbol sample should be a vector or True Type.

After editing parameters of displaying of template components, it is necessary to specify their mutual positioning by using the table of arrangement. This table consist of three levels on four place in everyone. By pressing by the left button in one of cells of the table, menu appears: Symbol, Text, Line, Empty and Origin. At choice of symbol in the given cell the symbol "&" will be drawn, at choice of a line - a line, at a choice Empty - the cell is cleared. At choice of the text the user should specify in the appeared list from which semantic characteristic this text is selected. For exact positioning of template on a map set Origin. The cell of origin is highlighted by a dark-blue frame. At drawing a template this cell coincides with the first point of the metrics.

The sizes of cells change at entering of concrete values for texts of template.
