Format hierarchy level

Invisible:

Choose the entry "Yes" from the drop-down list if the element is not supposed to be visible on the schematic page. It is still present in the project, however. In the user settings, you define whether or not invisible elements are to be displayed and / or printed (in a different color).

Line type:

Select the desired line type from the drop-down list.

Notes:

Projection:

This check box is only available for Lines. Select it, in order to specify a projection for the starting and end points (e.g. when drawing center lines). The projection is calculated according to DIN, on the basis of the line thickness and drawn with a length of "12 d" (where d = dashed line diameter (Line thickness)).

Note:

The line's snap points and dimensions are not changed by inserting a projection.
