The plugin can be found in the folder: Viz Artist 3: Built Ins ->Geometry -> Maps-Adv.

The 3DLineControl plugin is used for controlling 3D Line object groups. The Groups are then controlled in terms of width and color. The groups are derived from the settings in the 3DLine objects.

Control

Width

  • Width: Select one of the options to control the line width, Fixed (in pixels or in mm), or scaling.

    • Width: When fixed width is selected (pixels or mm), set the width value. Fixed width the line will maintain the width value through all camera zoom range. When Scaling is selected, width is set in actual kilometers and the line width will be calculated according to the camera zoom.

    • Minimum Width (Pixels): Set the minimal value of line width in pixels. this value will be used if the calculated width according to the width parameter is smaller than the minimum width value (when zooming far out).

    • Maximum Width (Pixels): Set the maximal value of line width in pixels. this value will be used if the calculated width according to the width parameter is larger than the maximum width value (when zooming in).

    • Minimum Draw Width (Pixels): This value defines the minimal line width drawn.

    • Fade Edge (%): Defines the edge fade width as a percentage of the line width.
