Arguments
liw line_width
Digitize with line_width ( 1 / 2 / 3 / ...).
tub
Display the digitized line in tube mode.
min | max
Digitize with height = @zmin | @zmax.
hei height
Digitize with height (z-value) set to height.
col color
Apply color color (color = red | gre | blu |...)
...
when
...
digitizing.
...
poi [lin]
Display only the points. lin means display also lines.
dva
Display value of the points.
sav workspace_name
Save digitized data in workspace workspace_name in addition to workspace ^rcd.
noy
The noy argument will disable the y key while digitizing. Ending the digitizing will enable the y key.
chc [whi | red | gre ...] | r g b
The chc argument will change the color when digitizing.
lco
Digitize using local origo and double precision.
set [cir] [cno] [hei] [dva] [col] [oll] [all] [crossing]
Options that can be set before or during digitizing.
cir [col | rad radius] - Digitize and display a circle at digitizing position. Use col red|gre...etc. rad will set circle radius to radius.
cno [on|off] - connect exclusively to nearest point in active. off will disconnect.
hei heightvalue - Digitize using z coordinate heightvalue .
dva [on|off] - Display z value during digitizing.
col whi|red|gre ... - Specify color of the digitizing line.
oll - Use special s m c hotkeys in outer limit line digitizing.
all - Use special s m c hotkeys in all digitizing.
crossing value - Determines what will happen when digitizing picks up the crossing point of two lines.
Options in z value when digitizing picks up the crossing point of two lines
0: no action.
1: use z value from active line (default)
2: use z value from crossing line
3: use the middle value as z value
4: use lowest z value as z value
5: use highest z value as z value
