For the example given below, we will describe the parameters that can be customized when a hatch profile is output to DRAGON format.
The drawing shown in the example has a profile consisting of two contours (a polyline that includes segments and two arcs, and circles).
In the example, the initial node of the profile is highlighted and the arrow shows the direction of traversing the profile.
When you select this format, the following file is created:
File Profile.drg:
START 205.740000 188.900000
LINE 224.180000 122.540000
LINE 79.630000 122.540000
LINE 79.630000 139.400000
ARC 96.490000 156.260000 96.490000 139.400000 -16.860000
LINE 139.540000 156.260000
LINE 139.540000 172.480000
ARC 155.960000 188.900000 155.960000 172.480000 -16.420000
LINE 205.740000 188.900000
END
PROFILE 2
START 195.470000 143.280000
ARC 195.470000 143.280000 182.490000 143.280000 12.980000
END
The profile-file consists of a sequence of lines. Each of the lines starts with a keyword and has a specific format. Keywords can be as follows:
PROFILE
START
LINE
ARC
END
Each new contour has a heading:
PROFILE N, where
N - the number of the contour in order.
For example:
PROFILE 1
...
...
...
PROFILE 2
...
Each contour starts with the keyword START and ends with the keyword END.
String formats:
START X1 Y1
END,
where
X1, Y1 - real coordinates of the starting point of the contour.
For example:
START 57.000 108.000
...
...
END
Between the keywords START and END there is a set of strings consisting of the keywords LINE and ARC (arc or circle).
String formats:
LINE X2 Y2,
where
X2, Y2 - real coordinates of the end point of the line.
ARC X2 Y2 XC YC R, where
X2, Y2 - real coordinates of the end point of the arc of the circle (for the circle - the coordinates of the point on the circle).
XC YC - real coordinates of the center of the circle.
R - radius of the circle. The radius of the circle is positive if the arc contour was traversed counterclockwise, and the radius of the circle is negative if clockwise.
For example:
LINE 97.000 108.000
ARC 117.000 88.000 97.000 88.000 -20
LINE 117.000 68.000
ARC 127.000 58.000 127.000 68.000 10
