In some cases it would be desirable to change the line type of a certain selection of Hull elements. This is possible with 'HullLineType'. If this is used care must be taken that the assigned number does not cause a conflict with the settings in the tabdash file. Also, the settings in the <filename>.dat file and the used tabdash file must correspond to each other. This means that all values for 'AutoCADLineType' and 'HullLineType' used in the <filename>.dat file must also be initially in the tabdash file.

Also in one <filename>.dat file all combinations of 'AutoCADLineType' and 'HullLineType' must be unique. So, it is not allowed to have an 'AutoCADLineType' related to more than one 'HullLineTypes' and vice versa.

If the character A is used for 'HullLineType' the in Hull defined line types for the selected parts will be taken as specified in the tabdash file. The tabdash file will eventually be adapted if the <filename>.dat file contains other definitions for 'AutoCADLineType' and 'HullLineType'.

Note: It is essential that the tabdash file initially contains definitions for all used Hull line types.
