Create a new line that is offset horizontally and vertically from lines, arcs and splines that have been created by feature code processing.
- A line sequence created by feature coding.
{1} is the feature code for the offset line.
{2} is the horizontal offset from the original line
{3} is the vertical offset from the original line.
Control Code Definition
A control code action 'Line Offset' is assigned a value '[{0=LinOS} {1} {2} {3} Description=Create lines at offset]'.
A control code action 'Join Start' is given a value 'ST'.
Measured Points
The first point (Point '5') is given a code 'INV ST LinOS BCK -.2 -.2'. Where INV is the feature code for Invert of Kerb and BCK is the feature code for Back of Kerb.
The next two points (Points '6' and '7') are given the code 'INV'.
The fourth point (Point '8') is given the code 'INV LinOS BCK - -'.
The fifth point (Point '9') is given the code 'INV'.
The sixth point (Point '10') is given the code 'INV LinOS BCK -.2 -.2'.
The final point (Point '11') is given the code 'INV'.
A line sequence is formed between points 5,6,7,8,9,10 and 11 on the INV layer.
A line is offset from the INV line by 0.2 meters to the left and 0.2 meters down and placed on the BCK layer. There is a break in the line between points '8' and '10'.
- A negative horizontal offset creates an offset to the left of the line.
- A negative vertical offset value creates an offset below the line.
- Enter '-' (a minus sign), for parameters {2} and {3} to break a line.
- You can create more than one offset line by repeating the control code action.
- 'Line offset code - - -' indicates the end of all line offsets.
