Description
The DefaultTrack2d command is used to set default 2D Graphics attributes for all new tracks within a Multi-Track Object (MTO).
| {TrackOptions} | Description |
|---|---|
| Show {On | Off} | Indicates if the track will be displayed. |
| ShowLine {On | Off} | Indicates if the track line will be displayed. |
| ShowLabel {On | Off} | Indicates if the track label will be displayed. |
| ShowMarker {On | Off} | Indicates if the track marker will be displayed. |
| Color {Color} | Indicates the color with which the track will be displayed. For valid color options see Common Options. |
| MarkerColor {Color} | Indicates the color with which the marker will be displayed. |
| MarkerStyle {MarkerOptions} | Indicates the marker style to use for the track marker. See Connect help for the Graphics Marker command for a description of {MarkerOptions}. |
| MarkerTranslucency <TrackNum> <TranslucencyValue> | Indicates the translucency of the marker that will be displayed for the track. <TranslucencyValue> is between 0.0 and 100.0 where 0 is fully opaque and 100 is fully translucent. |
| LineColor {Color} | Indicates the color with which the line will be displayed. |
| LabelColor {Color} | Indicates the color with which the label will be displayed. |
| LineWidth <Width> | Indicates the width of the route line that will be displayed for the track. <Width> is a value between 1 and 10. |
| LineStyle {Style} | Indicates the style of the route line that will be displayed for the track. {Style} can be a name such as Solid, Dashed, Dotted, etc, or a number 0, 1, 2, etc. For all valid {Style} options see Common Options. |
| LineTranslucency <Value> | Indicates the translucency of the route line that will be displayed for the track. <Value> is between 0.0 and 100.0 |
| AlwaysShowEntireLine {On | Off} | When enabled, the entire track line is always displayed regardless of the fade time settings and lead/trail settings are not allowed. If disabled, the track line will honor the fade time settings and lead/trail settings can be used. |
| UsePreFadetime {On | Off} | Indicates if the track will be displayed for a duration ahead of its start time. |
| UsePostFadetime {On | Off} | Indicates if the track will be displayed for a duration after its stop time. |
| PreFadetime <Time> | Indicates the amount of time ahead of the start time that the track will be displayed. <Time> is entered in seconds. |
| PostFadetime <Time> | Indicates the amount of time after the stop time that the track will be displayed. <Time> is entered in seconds. |
| UseDisplayTime {On | Off} | Indicates whether lead and trail times will be set for the track. |
| LeadTime {<Time> | All | None} | Indicates the amount of the track's route that will be displayed ahead of the track's location. <Time> is entered in seconds. |
| TrailTime {<Time> | All | None} | Indicates the amount of the track's route that will be displayed behind the track's location. <Time> is entered in seconds. |
| RangeContours {RangeOptions} <TranslucencyValue> | Define default values for range contours. See the table below for valid {RangeOptions} <Parameters> values. |
For valid {Color} options see Common Options.
DefaultTrack2d RangeContours
This command allows you to define default values for range contours. The format for this command is:
DefaultTrack2d <MTOObjectPath> RangeContours {RangeOptions} <Parameters>
The following table describes the {RangeOptions} <Parameters> available for the DefaultTrack2d RangeContours command.
| {RangeOptions} | <Parameters> | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Show | {On | Off} | Display range contour graphics. |
| Explicit | <LevelValue> {Color} {LineStyle} {LineWidth} {ShowDistance} [{ShowText} ["<LabelText>" [<LabelAngle>]]] | Define individual range contour levels by specifying its <LevelValue>, entered in Connect distance units, and display attributes. Valid values for {ShowDistance} and {ShowText} are On, Off. <LabelAngle> is entered in degrees. For valid {Color} and {LineStyle} options see Common Options. |
| Contour | <LevelValue> {Keyword} <Value> [{Keyword} <Value>...] | Change the attributes of the <LevelValue> specified. {Keyword} <Value> pairs are described in the table below. |
| StartStop | <Start> <Stop> <Step> | Generate contours beginning with the Start value and incrementing by the Step value until the Stop value is exceeded. <Start> <Stop> and <Step>is entered in Connect distance units. |
| Remove | <LevelValue> | Remove the contour representing the <LevelValue> specified.
If the specified level is not found, the command will Ack, and do nothing. |
| RemoveAll | N/A | Remove all contours. |
| LabelAngle | <Angle> | Sets the LabelAngle for all existing contours. This defines where, along the contour, the text and/or distance is displayed. <Angle> can be 0 to 359 degrees, clockwise. The default is 180 degrees or the 6:00 o'clock position.
Contours inserted after calling this command will still have the default LabelAngle of 180. |
| Fill | {On | Off} [{FillStyle}] | If On is entered then display the range contours as a filled polygon on the surface of the central body. The {FillStyle} can be one of: Solid, VerticalStripe, HorizontalStripe, DiagonalStripe1, DiagonalStripe2, Hatch, DiagonalHatch, Screen. The {FillStyle} value can only be entered if On is also entered. |
| DecimalPlaces | <Value> | Sets the number of decimal places for displaying the level values. <Value> can be 0 to 14. The default is 3. |
| LabelUnits | {UnitType} | Indicate the units to use for displaying the level values. Valid values for {UnitType} are:
|
The following table describes the {Keyword} <Value> pairs for the Contour {RangeOptions}
| {Keyword} <Value> | Description |
|---|---|
| Color {Color} | Set the color of the contour. For valid {Color} options see Common Options. |
| LineStyle {LineStyle} | {LineStyle} can be a name such as Solid, Dashed, Dotted, etc, or a number 0, 1, 2, etc. For all valid {LineStyle} options see Common Options. |
| LineWidth <Width> | Indicate a pixel width value between 1.0 - 10.0 |
| ShowDistance {On | Off} | Show or Hide the contour's distance. |
| ShowText {On | Off} | Show or hide the contour's user defined text. |
| Text "<Text>" | Set the contour's user defined text. |
| LabelAngle <Angle> | Define where, along the contour, the text and/or distance is displayed. <Angle> can be 0 to 359 degrees, clockwise. The default is 180 degrees or the 6:00 o'clock position. |
