Field Code Area

When displaying Tendon information from a CIM model as Tendon annotations in a drawing, you can create the desired Tendon annotation style by inserting available field codes.
A Filed code is used to set the type of annotation information to be displayed.
Set the annotation style by freely arranging the information items of the tendon to insert in Text1, 2, and 3 areas.

• Unit
  : Below the field code table, the user can set the unit for each field code.
  Based on the information in the CIM model, the unit setting value set in the tendon symbol style is matched and displayed.

• Precision
  : Set the precision of the units based on information from the CIM model.

• Frame
  : Insert a symbol frame within the text area to represent it as an annotation.
  After selecting the desired shape, use the Add button to insert the code for entering the shape in the text area.
  If the user puts a value between the inserted codes, the value is expressed by putting it in the shape.

Text Area Style Settings

The information to be displayed as a Tendon annotation can be displayed by dividing it into three areas with Text 1, 2, and 3.
Set the leader line display method for each type of tendon annotation.

• Font setting : Set the Text Font of Text1, Text2, and Text3.

• Color & Scale Setting : Set the color of the annotation text and set the view magnification of the Preview.
