On-screen and printer view of objects

Objects of classifier can have two views of displaying: on-screen view and a view for output onto print devices.

Display bookmark is intended for correction of a printer and on-screen view. The printer view of object is used at output onto print devices.

For displaying on the screen the object can be more simple. All measurements (line thickness, a dash length etc.) for on-screen view of objects it is possible to set in pixels. To the view of object for a print more demands are made. Accuracy of the sizes is necessary, both symbols, and distances between them. All measurements can be specified in millimeters.

On the Display bookmark at once both a printer view and on-screen view of object are displayed.

In the right side under a window with a general view of objects there is located a bar with buttons . Scale, compress and sync.

These properties are identical both for printer and for on-screen view. At the pressed button to sync - both views equally change at editing.

View of objects is a set of primitives (allowed for the selected localization). Primitives are drawn by one metric (the first from the bottom). Thus, for the polygonal object with a contour needs to enter by the first a primitive the area, then a contour - a line.

The top of the right side of printer and on-screen view occupies a window in which primitives are displayed separately.

To the left of this window there is a column of buttons with possible actions for each view of object.

Buttons and allow to put an object view into the clipboard or to insert it from the clipboard.

Buttons and allow you to copy on-screen view into the printer one and vice versa.

The lower at displaying it will be the first left primitive. To add a primitive click Add. The new primitive is drawn on the top. Its parameters are copied from the parameters of the current primitive.

For deleting a current primitive, press the button Remove. The current primitive is marked by a frame of blue color. To select the current primitive, press the left mouse button on its image. If there are more than three primitives, the window of primitives is scrolled. To change a place of a current primitive, click on it by the left mouse button and, without releasing, move onto a new place.

Under a window of primitives there is a drop-down list for a choice or change of a current primitive. Under the primitives list there are located the windows for change of parameters of current function or the Parameters button. Pressing this button opens a dialog for entering the parameters of the current primitive.

The main actions with a set of primitives can be made by means of the menu. Press the right mouse button. Choose one of items: add, delete, above, topmost, lower, lowest.

The current primitive will move onto one place to the right or to the left, or will stand into the top or bottom of the list of object primitives.

To change the view of a current primitive, choose a new primitive in the list. Then change parameters.
