Marking Symbol
Define if a profile/plate symbol is shown next to a marking line. When enabled, the information that is shown is determined in the following way:
For profiles
- If a model %ncgnorms%\details\tanmodel<type number>.mod is present, this is used.
- Otherwise, if the profile type is defined by the Default Profile Dimensions setting, a model of the profile is presented using the default dimensions defined for that profile type.
- Otherwise, a model of the profile is presented using the actual dimensions.
For plates
- If a model %ncgnorms%\details\tanmodel000.mod is present, this is used.
- Otherwise two parallel lines are drawn, the distance between these lines is determined by the plate thickness.
By default this setting is disabled.
Default Profile Dimensions
Define the default profile dimensions that determine the size of profile models presented with marking lines.
