Description
Procedure SetLS sets the linestyle of the referenced object.
If the value is in the range 0 to 71, the specified fill pattern is applied as the linestyle; a value in the range of -1 to -8 will apply the specified linestyle.
Fill patterns and their associated constants can be found in the VectorScript Appendix.
PROCEDURE SetLS(
h :HANDLE;
ls :INTEGER);
def vs.SetLS(h, ls): return None
Parameters
h HANDLE Handle to object. ls INTEGER Linestyle to apply to object.
Remarks
(Orso, 2014 Apr. 08): This Routine can be considered partly obsolete from VW 2013 (VW 18) since it will ignore complex line types. Use SetLSN instead.
(Orso, 2011 May 19): Since VW 2010 the max number of Dash styles increased to 128, thus the limit is now theoretically -128 and not -8. It is to be minded that the function will rise a warning if the dash style index passed doesn't exist. This can happen when users deleted them.
Thus the secure range to be used is: -1 to - NumDashStyles.
Example
VectorScript
PROCEDURE Example; VAR cnt :INTEGER; BEGIN PushAttrs; TextSize(1); TextJust(3); TextVerticalAlign(3); FOR cnt := -10 TO 71 DO BEGIN TextOrigin(-2, cnt); CreateText(Concat(cnt)); MoveTo(0, cnt); LineTo(24", cnt); SetLS(LNewObj, cnt); END; PopAttrs; END; RUN(Example);
{ Assigning none (no pattern) to the object pen. } SetLS(ObjHandle, 0)
