VTools General Tab (AutoCAD Raster Design Options Dialog Box)

Use this tab to control the general behavior of vectorization tools.

Removal Method

None

Leaves the raster as you trace it.

Rub

Rubs the underlying raster automatically. This setting uses the Rub/Crop Line Width setting to determine the width of the raster it rubs. For more information, see Rub and Crop Line Width.

REM

Deletes the underlying raster. However, unlike the Rub setting, this option recognizes raster line width and leaves raster intersections intact

Vector Separation

Specifies values such as layer and polyline width to vectors based on the underlying raster. For more information, see General Vector Separation Options and Contour Vector Separation Options.

Line, Circle, Arc and Polyline Settings

Stop At Vector Intersection

Instructs vline, vpline, and varc to stop at vector intersections during one-pick selection. This is useful if much of a drawing has been vectorized and the VTools must now depend on increasing amounts of vector data to make stopping decisions.

Display Start Point Glyph

Instructs vline and vpline commands to display a glyph that specifies the start point.

Verification List

Most Recently Used

Populates the verification list with recently used values.

Most Frequently Used

Populates the verification list with frequently used values.

Length

Specifies the number of values to include in the verification list.

SmartCorrect Settings

Respect Drafting Settings

Instructs SmartCorrect to adhere to current AutoCAD drafting settings such as OSNAP, ORTHO, POLAR, and so on, for the Line and Polyline tools.

Correction Tolerance

AutoCAD APERTURE

Specifies the aperture settings from the Drafting Tab of the AutoCAD Options dialog box to determine how far (in screen pixels) the resulting vector is allowed to shift in an attempt to respect AutoCAD drafting settings.

AutoCAD Units

Specifies how far (in AutoCAD units) the resulting vector is allowed to shift in an attempt to respect AutoCAD drafting settings. If you select this option, enter the number of units in the text box.

Round Values

Rounds the values for vector entities created using one-pick selection for the Line, Polyline, Circle, and Arc tools. Rounding applies to the length and angle values for lines and polylines, and to the radius value for arcs and circles.

AutoCAD Precision (LUPREC/AUPREC)

Specifies the AutoCAD precision value that you set on the Units tab of the Drawing Setup dialog box. AutoCAD Precision rounds to the number of decimal places you specify.

Specified Precision

Specifies the precision values you set in the associated Length and Angle text boxes. Specified Precision rounds to a multiple of the value you entered. For instance, if you specified a length precision of .03, AutoCAD Raster Design toolset might round a line to 12.03, 12.06, 12.09, and so on.
