LineType Class

LineType class. The pattern defines pen-up lengths (spaces), pen-down lengths (dashes), and dots. A pattern specifies the length of segments that make up the linetype. A positive decimal number specifies a pen-down (dash) segment of that length. A negative decimal number specifies a pen-up (space) segment of that length. Zero specifies a dot. For example, the DASHDOT linetype is defined by a repeating pattern starting with a dash 0.5 drawing units long, a space 0.25 drawing units long, a dot, and another space 0.25 drawing units long.

Methods
 
Name Description
Public method Static CheckPattern(float[], bool, out float) Checks if the pattern has: more than one value, alternate sign for penDown/penUp or values are not all zero.
Public method Clone() Creates a new object that is a copy of the current instance.
Public method ConvertToSurrogate()
Public method Equals(LineType) Compares line type names ignoring cases.
Protected method Finalize Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (inherited from Object).
Public method GetHashCode()
Public method GetKey()
Public method GetObjectData(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext) Populates a SerializationInfo instance with the data needed to serialize the target object.
Public method GetPatternVertices(int, Point3D[], float, out List<Point3D>, out List<Point3D>, Transformation) Computes the pattern from the given vertices and returns the lines and points that represent it.
Internal protected (Protected Friend) method Static GetPenDowns(Segment3D, float[], float, out Segment3D[], ref int, ref double)
Public method GetType Gets the Type of the current instance. (inherited from Object).
Protected method MemberwiseClone Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (inherited from Object).
Protected method OnKeyChanged(string, string) When the Name changes I need to notify it to the related keyed collections before changing it.
Public method SetKey(string)
Public method ToString()

Events
 
Name Description
Public event KeyChanged Occurs when the Name changes.

Remarks
 
When the line type used by entities already added to the Environment is changed, their Entity.RegenMode must be set to regenType.CompileOnly and the EntityList.Regen must be called.
