Property Set Definitions

Available in TurboCAD Pro Platinum Only

Property Set Definitions (PSD) are used to define what kind of objects will associate with Entity Marks and assign the type and nature of data to be used with Entity Marks. Property Set Definitions are assigned in the Styles Manager palette.

  1. Select Property Set Definitions in the Style Manager.
  2. Click the New button at the top of the palette.

  3. When the New Style Name dialog appears enter a name then click OK.
  4. Select the new Property Set Definition in the Style Manager.
  5. In the Data area of the Style Manager (at the bottom), select Property definitions, then click on the data button that appears.
  6. The Property Set Definition dialog will open.
  7. Select the objects to which the PSD will apply, and then proceed with creating the property definitions for the set, either Automatic, or Manual, or Both. Note that the only objects which will work for Entity Marks are those associated with Property Definition Sets.

Automatic Definitions

Automatic definitions for PSD's are use to extract data directly from the object types.

  1. Select a single property from the property list. A name reflecting the property will automatically be assigned.
  2. Modify the name if needed.
  3. Click Ok create the property definition.

Manual Definitions

Automatic definitions for PSD's are use to extract data directly from the object types.

  1. Specify a Type for the property definition.  Options include:

    Integer – a set number in integer format e.g. 5, 20, 3
    Real – a set number in real format e.g. 1.5, 2.645, 3.14159
    Text – a string of text e.g. Made by Troponopo inc.
    Boolean – a True/False value. Allows you to add a checkbox property e.g. (property name=SecurityGlass) True
    Auto Increment-Integer – an automatically incrementing integer value e.g. 0, 1, 2
    Auto Increment-Character – an automatically incrementing character value e.g. A, B, C

  2. Specify a default value for the property definition.
  3. Create a name for the property definition.
  4. Click Ok create the Property definition.

Auto Increments

Auto Increment in manual property definitions (Auto Increment – Integer, Auto Increment – Character) are use to create sequential markers for object in your drawing. The increment value will depend upon the order of the objects creation, not the order in which you create the Entity Marks.
