This sub-report applies to various report types, including body, chassis, loads, etc. Each report type can have different settings for its Discrete sub-report.
After selecting Show Discrete Outlines to enable this element, you can select the desired features.
- At All Discrete Body Outlines is available on all but the Body Outline sub-report.
- Use Simple Body Outline is available only on the discrete and spaced body outline reports. It uses the outlines defined in the vehicle's Body Outline (Plan) outline type instead of those in Body Detail (Plan).
- The Label Text display option is available only on the Annotation report. Leave the Label Text field blank to display the vehicle name.
- At Offsets shows outlines at specified positions. Enter the distances from the start of the path in the adjacent box, using commas to separate the distances. For example, 10.4, 15.6, 23.9 would draw body outlines at distances of 10.4, 15.6, and 23.9 in the current units. Alternatively, you can select Pick and click points along the path where you want to see the outlines.
- Show Driver/Pilot displays an icon representing the driver's location. Note that the position of the driver can be adjusted in the vehicle details.
- Layer selection cannot be used if you are using a layering convention. Otherwise, you can select from the existing layers or specify a new layer for the report.
- Line Type and Color controls provide a wide range of selections. If you want a Color other than the 255 listed, select Custom and click on the colour swatch to select from a color chart.
AutoCAD Only
The pen numbers directly correlate with AutoCAD's pen numbering system (color indices in later versions). If you select a custom color that does not correspond to a defined pen color, it will be treated as TrueColor.
- For Line Weight, 0.0 mm is the default, and forces the thinnest possible line. Wider lines are drawn symmetrically about the centerline.
Note: Variations in line weight are only visible on printed output or in a print preview.
- Fill provides a solid fill for the body outlines.
