To Change the General Vector Separation Options

  1. Click Raster menu Options. The Raster Design Options dialog box is displayed.
  2. Click the VTools General tab.
  3. Click the Vector Separation button.
  4. Click the General tab.
  5. If you want to assign layer and polyline width values to vectors based on the width of the underlying raster, then in the Width Table section, select Use Width Table.
  6. To insert a new row in the Width Table, click Insert Below or Insert Above, then enter values for the minimum width (in pixels), maximum width (in pixels), layer, and polyline width.
    Tip: If you don't know the width of a given raster entity, click the Query Width button, then click the raster entity. The Entity Width Information dialog box appears and displays the raster entity's width in pixels and in AutoCAD units. If you want to use one of these values, you can use standard Windows techniques for copying and pasting information from the clipboard. Click OK to return to the Vector Separation dialog box.
  7. If you want to assign different values to dashed lines and other non-continuous entities, then in the Non-Continuous Entities section, select Override Width Table for Non-Continuous Entities. Select default Layer and Polyline Width for these entities.
  8. In the Default section, select a default Layer and Polyline Width.
  9. If you want to import vector separation settings, click Import. Vector separation files have a .vs extension.
  10. If you want to export the current vector separation settings, click Export.
  11. If you want to make the current vector separation settings the default values, click Save As Default.
  12. Click OK to exit the dialog box.
