Operation with ISD Toolbox
between the beginning of the event segment
container and the selected predecessor node. This
is necessary because event nodes do not have x-
coordinates and therefore, the starting point of
an event segment is calculated from its
predecessors, which leads back to the beginning
of the event segment container.
•
When creating a Time poly, its duration parameter
is set according to the end position selected and
a succeeding event node is always created for the
Time poly.

Parameters
- ID: Unique segment ID within the CAM
profile.
-
Segment type: Read-only property for
helping the user verify the segment
type. The value is Guide segment or
Event segment.
-
Sub-type: The sub-type of the segment
(for example, Guide poly or Move
distance segment for guide segments,
and Time poly or Velocity segment for
event segments).
- Default: Specifies if the segment is the
default segment for its preceding node.
Relations
- Preceding node: Contains the preceding
node of the segment.
- Succeeding node: Contains the
succeeding node of the segment.
Start
-
Start actions: Contains the list of actions
that are performed at the beginning of
the segment.
End
-
End actions: Contains the list of actions
that are performed at the end of the
segment.
Appearance
