====== All Line Legend Parameters ====== ===== Basic Line Parameters ===== {{line_all_basic.png?nolink|}} ^ Basic Appearance Line ^^ | Line Visibility | Tick to activate the line visibility and show lines in the map view. | | Line Color | Choose the line color, use the [[180:desktop:dataset:legend:parameters:color|Color Picker]]. | | Line Transparancy | Set the transparency percentage of the line from opaque to completely transparent. | ===== Line ===== {{line_all_line.png?nolink|}} ^ Line ^^ | Line Width | Enter a line width and select a [[180:desktop:dataset:legend:parameters:size|size unit]]. | | Line Style | Select a [[180:desktop:dataset:legend:parameters:line_style|line style]]. | | Style Length | Enter a [[180:desktop:dataset:legend:parameters:style_length|style length]] repetition and select a size unit. | | Join Type | Select the [[180:desktop:dataset:legend:parameters:all_line#Join Type / Cap Type|Join Type]] for corners | | Cap Type | Select the [[180:desktop:dataset:legend:parameters:all_line#Join Type / Cap Type|Cap Type]] for line-ends | ==== Join Type / Cap Type ==== Join Type and Cap Type almost have no influence for thin lines. For a thicker line they have more impact. \\ The Cap Type also has his influence on the visibility of the Line Style. ^ Join Type ^ Cap Type ^ | {{line_all_jointype.png?nolink}} | {{line_all_cabtype.png?nolink}} | \\ ===== Symbol Repetition ===== {{line_all_symbol.png?nolink|}} ^ Symbol Repetition ^^ | Visibility | Sets the symbol repetition on/off | | Type | Select the type of repetition (interval, joins, endpoints, part middle and segement middle). See [[180:desktop:dataset:legend:parameters:all_line#Symbol Repetition Type|Symbol Repetition Type]]. | | Interval | Enter the interval length and select a size unit. | | Offset | Enter the offset length and select a size unit. \\ The offset is the distance between the beginning of the line and the the appearance of the first symbol of the symbol repetition. See [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Offset_(computer_science)|Wikipedia Offset (computer science)]]. | | Orientation Type | Select the symbol orientation (Absolute, Relative, RelativeAlternate). See [[180:desktop:dataset:legend:parameters:all_line#Symbol Repetition Orientation Type|Symbol Repetition Orientation Type]]. | [[180:desktop:dataset:legend:parameters:all_point|{{line_all_symbol_symbol.png|}}]] Click on the "Symbol" button to modify [[180:desktop:dataset:legend:parameters:all_point|]]. ==== Symbol Repetition Type ==== ^ Type ^^ | Interval | Place symbol at regular intervals. | | Joins | Place symbols on each point or vertex. | | Endpoints | Place symbol on the line ends. | | Part Middle | Place symbol on the line middle. | | Segment Middle | Place symbol on each segment middle. | ==== Symbol Repetition Orientation Type ==== ^ Orientation Type ^^ | Absolute | A constant orientation. | | Relative | An orientation related towards the orientation of the line at each spot a symbol is drawn. | | RelativeAlternate | As relative, but alternating with a 180 DEG switch for consecutive symbols. | ==== Examples ==== Used Symbol: \\ {{line_all_symbolrep_symbol.png?nolink|}} ^ Absolute ^ Relative ^ RelativeAlternate ^ | {{line_all_symbolrep_absolute.png?nolink280|}} | {{line_all_symbolrep_relative.png?nolink280|}} | {{line_all_symbolrep_relativealternate.png?nolink280|}} |
