SilverSharp.DIM_STUFF

Structure

A data type that stores the properties of a DETAIL_NODE. The "DIM" in "DIM_STUFF" stands for "Dimensioning".

C# Code

Properties

The following read-only properties mimic the purpose of their counter-parts in the SilverC DIM_STUFF data type:

Member	Description
arrow_size	Length of arrow
center_size	Size of center
denominator	Denominator for primary dimension value
font_ptr	Pointer to FONT_NODE
is_filled	Indicates whether or not text is filled
neg_tolerance	Negative tolerance
pos_tolerance	Positive tolerance
precision	Precision for primary dimensioning value
rotation	Angle (degrees) of rotation of dimensioning
round_value	Value to identify where rounding will occur
sec_denominator	denomination for secondary dimensioning value
sec_notation	A Notation enumeration value for secondary dimensioning value
sec_precision	Precision for secondary dimensioning value
sec_units	A UnitsOfMeasure enumeration value for secondary dimensioning value
text_aspect	Aspect ratio of text
text_height	Height of text
text_rgb	Color of text
tic_size	Length of tic
witness_ext	Witness extension beyond dimensioning line
witness_offset	Offset of witness line relative to object dimensioned
witness_rgb	Color of witness lines

The following read-only properties extend DIM_STUFF for SilverSharp:
