Boresight Graphics

The Boresight page provides options related to the display of boresight graphics in the 2D Graphics window. There are three fields to be set.

Field Description
Show Boresight Graphics If on, boresight graphics display in the 2D Graphics window.
Color The color in which you want the graphics to appear.
Marker Style Select the marker you want to display to represent the boresight. You can also add a custom marker by creating a pixmap file with a .marker extension and saving it to your <STK install folder>\STKData\Pixmaps directory. Pixmaps can be any size. Once created, custom markers are available in the Marker Style list.

It is best to use one marker style for a class of objects so that you can easily view differences between one type of object and another. For instance, you may want to always use the star marker style for a receiver and the square marker style for a transmitter.
