COMMENT_LINETYPE command allows such items to be included in the drawing
without affecting motion translation.
USAGE:
COMMENT_LINETYPE
-------------------
In a Macro
Yes
Association
None
COMMENT_LINETYPE is placed in a drawing with a segment of the linetype desired
for comments placed directly below. This has the appearance of a legend on a map.
The line must be placed within a character height of the text position of the command.
Note that the comment linetype should not be used by the elements of the drawing
representing motion or your drawing will be one large comment.
CORNER_ANGLE
PURPOSE:
CORNER_ANGLE is used to specify the maximum allowable rotation angle between
contiguous motion segments. If the angle is exceeded, motion will stop between the
segments.
USAGE:
CORNER_ANGLE=n
where n is an angle in degrees
In a Macro
No

Drawing
NOTE: CORNER_ANGLE must always be used in conjunction with
CORNER_MODE.
EXAMPLE:
Figure 12 shows the use of the CORNER_ANGLE command. With the angle
specified, the motion will not stop at the transition between segments 2 and 3 because
the angle of rotation is only 30 degrees. However, if the CORNER_ANGLE were
specified to be 25 degrees, the motion would also stop at the transition between
segments 2 and 3.
NOTE: Angles in Figure 12 are shown for clarity and should not be included in a
drawing to be translated.
CORNER_MODE
PURPOSE:
CORNER_MODE is used to specify constant velocity motion unless a sharp transition
is encountered. As long as the angle of rotation between consecutive segments is less
than the specified CORNER_ANGLE, motion will be continuous. Any angle of rotation
