Outline styles

[Deze sectie is nog niet vertaald.]

The Outline inspector offers various outline styles, which can be selected from the relevant popup menu.

Belangrijk: Please note that the currently set up parameters of any outline style will be overwritten by default parameters whenever you select another outline style from the popup menu. So if you want to restore a previously defined outline style, please use the Undo function from the Edit menu instead.

Standaardstijl

By default, this Standaardstijl is selected, for which the Outline inspector offers various default outline parameters as described in the previous chapter. The other outline styles offer more outline parameters which are described in detail as follows.

Dimensielijn

With this outline style, you can create dimension lines as known from technical drawings.

Here the default outline parameters are enhanced by the following options:

Dimensionering Choose whether the dimensioning text shall be shown above, within or below the line, or if you want to suppress the dimensioning text at all.
Eenheden Here you define which of the available measurement units to be used for the dimensioning text.
Toon eenheid This option shows the selected unit (in its abbreviated form) with the dimensioning text.
Toon tolerantie Use this option if the dimensioning text should also document tolerance values.
Tekst stijl Here you define the text style to be used for the dimensioning text. If no suitable text style is available, please create a suitable one in the Text Style inspector.
Ruw

This outline style corresponds to the basic default style, while no smooth, plain outline is drawn here, but a rough line for which you can define the Ruwheid parameter.

ZigZag

Using this outline style, you create a zigzag line which comes with three more parameters:

Golflengte Here you define how far the zigzag waves should be away from each other.
Versterking Define the height of the zigzag waves with this parameter.
Spreiding With this parameter, you can modify the shape from very pointed zigzag waves up to strongly overlapping, curved wave forms.

Padtekst

Tip: Een tekstpad maken

This powerful outline style offers to form any text running along any paths. If you e.g. need round text typesetting, text on a wave line or path text along a shape line, this is the right tool.

The required parameters are:

Plaats Here you define whether the path text should be placed above, within or below the line.
Offset Use this slider to define the position of the text in relation to the outline path.
Lay-out Here you have the option to position your text Langs pad or Langs omgekeerd pad. Because the result really depends on the selected outline path, you will get the desired result faster by simply trying out, like so often.
Tekst stijl Here you define the text style to be used for the path text. If no suitable text style is available, please create a suitable one in the Text Style inspector.
Uitlijning Here you find the usual buttons for left justified, centered, fully justified, and right justified alignment.
Tekst Please enter your desired text into this field. Note that you cannot add more formattings to text in this text field, because just the plain text will be used. If the path is too short, then surplus text will be cut off in the path text output.

Hint: If you want to typeset plain path text without a visible outline path, simply switch off the Teken lijn option above in the Outline inspector.

Paddecoratie

This outline style uses the outline path to spread graphic elements along it. So you will not find any of the usual outline parameters here. Here, the outline itself will basically be shown as a guide only. Therefore, the View menu option Toon framehulplijnen has to be switched on.

Instead, you find the following outline parameters here:

Spatiƫring Here you define the distance in which the graphic element should be repeatedly placed on the selected outline path.
Grootte Here you define the size of all copies of the graphic element on the outline path.
Offset Here you can set an offset for the first graphic element on the starting point of the outline path.
Helling Use this slider to let elements grow from the outline path's start and end until they reach their defined size in the middle area of the path.
Draai volgens padcurve When this option is checked, all graphic elements are rotated to follow the path curvature. If you don't use this option, all graphic elements stay unrotated on the outline path, like they are shown in the graphic element field.
Graphic Element field In this field, your chosen graphic element for this outline path is presented. The field cannot be filled with graphic elements directly by drag 'n' drop. Instead, copy the desired element into the clipboard.
Haal van klembord When you have copied a graphic element into the clipboard, you get it into the graphic element field using this button.
Wis If you want to delete the current graphic element from the graphic element field, please click this button.
