Syntax

[SerializableAttribute]
public sealed class Linetype : ModelComponent

The Linetype type exposes the following members.

Constructors

Name

Description

Public Method

Linetype.

Initializes a new instance of the Linetype class

Public Method

Linetype(Linetype)

Properties

Name

Description

Public Property

AlwaysModelDistances

Linetype patterns and widths are typically interpreted as distances on the printed output when printing. In this case AlwaysModelDistances is false (default). When set to true, the linetype pattern and width will be interpreted as being in world distances. This is useful for cases like modeling a road as a single curve.
