XS_​SHORTENING_​SYMBOL_​WITH_​ZIGZAG

Category

Drawing Properties

Use this advanced option to set the shortening symbol line shape. If you do not want to use zigzag, set this advanced option to FALSE. TRUE is the default.

This advanced option is model specific and the setting is saved in the options database.

Tip:

You can control the appearance of the view shortening symbol with the advanced options XS_​SHORTENING_​SYMBOL_​COLOR and XS_​SHORTENING_​SYMBOL_​LINE_​TYPE.

To use a view shortening symbol instead of the empty area, set the advanced options XS_​DRAW_​VERTICAL_​VIEW_​SHORTENING_​SYMBOLS_​TO_​PARTS and XS_​DRAW_​HORIZONTAL_​VIEW_​SHORTENING_​SYMBOLS_​TO_​PARTS to TRUE.
