Grid/Highlight Unlinked Objects
The Grid/Highlight Unlinked Objects tab is only available in Edit mode. It controls the appearance of a grid in the oneline. A grid is not visible by default, but can be setup from the Grid/Highlight Unlinked Objects page of the Oneline Display Options dialog. Additional options are available from this dialog for disabling anchors and highlighting unlinked objects on oneline diagrams.
If checked, new objects placed on the oneline will be aligned with the grid; the grid does not need to be visible on the oneline to align objects to it.
X Grid Spacing, Y Grid Spacing
These determine the horizontal and vertical spacing of the grid.
If checked, the grid lines will appear on the oneline
Horizontal Show Every, Vertical Show Every
These numbers determine the density of the visible gridlines; for fewer lines enter higher numbers.
Click in the rectangle to choose the color of the gridlines. The default is grey.
Anchor Options
A check box is available for temporarily disabling anchors on a oneline diagram. This option will disable the anchor properties of all objects on the oneline diagram.
Do not prompt regarding relinking objects after dragging
Check this check-box to avoid being prompted whether to relink a graphical object after this has been dragged.
Highlighting of Unlinked Objects
Highlight Unlinked Objects with Color
Checking this box allows for any objects on all open oneline diagrams that are currently not linked to any data in the case to be highlighted using the highlight color. To change the highlight color used, left-click in the color box to choose a different color.
Minimum Highlighted Object Pixel Size
The minimum size, in pixels, of the highlight image. This is to prevent the highlight from being unnoticeable when the zoom level is very low.
Extra Width for Highlighted Lines (pixels)
Sets an extra width parameter, in pixels, for highlighting line objects. This will make line object highlights appear wider than other highlighted objects.
Display Unlinked Elements in Run Mode
This option allows the highlighting of unlinked elements when you switch to run mode. By default the highlighting of unlinked elements is restricted to edit mode, to avoid confusion in run mode, particularly when drawing contours.
