Open Dragline Specification panel

Spec file name

Enter, or select from the drop-down list, the <spec_file_id> part of the dragline specifications file name. The maximum size is 6 alphanumeric characters. Selecting a name from the drop-down list will open an existing specifications file. Entering a new name will create a new specifications file.

Click OK.

Label font

Specify the font for the strip labels. The font is selected from a list supplied with the system.

Text height in plotter units

Enter the size of the strip label text. If the font is a transformable font, that is, a scaled font, then the size will be in relation to the map scale.

Map scale for this size

If the labels are in a transformable font, and its size set to '0.30' with a map scale of '1:100', then the text will appear on the screen the same size as an object that is 30 units tall. Changing the scale to '1:1000' results in the text appearing as 300 units. Changing the scale to '10: 000' results in a text size of 3000 units and so forth.

Colour

Select the colour for the strip objects. The colour is selected from the current colour table.

Click OK.

The strip attributes are then updated.
