Line Thickness

You can manage V6 line thickness for V4 to V6 migration. Ths topic explains its methodology, wherein, you will learn how the migration of line thickness is carried out, and what you need to pre-define concerning the V6 standard parameters before starting the migration process.

This page discusses:

Migration mechanism

When a line is migrated from V4 to V6, the closest existing V6 thickness will be taken into account to create the new line. Therefore, the V4 existing thicknesses have to be re-defined in V6.

Pre-definition

You need to re-create line thicknesses in V6, based on the existing V4 line thicknesses.

In V4, line thicknesses are defined in the STANDARD function, under DRAW ELT.

In V6, line thicknesses are defined in the Standards Editor, under Standard > name_of_standard > LineThickness. The following fields should be referenced:

  • Availability (defines if the line is available to create new elements),
  • Thickness for browsing (in pixels),
  • Thickness for plotting (in mm).
