Indicate the left (lower) interval boundary on the width ruler and drag it to the
left across the boundary of the nearest interval – the adjacent interval will be
merged, and the created interval will be assigned a new lower boundary. If you
drag it across the right (upper) interval boundary, then the interval will be also
deleted.
Modifying interval properties
The following properties are set to each interval: source width boundaries, width of
created lines, color and layer These properties are assigned to objects with widths
within this interval
The width, which is assigned to an interval, can have any non-negative value.
However, as the width is assigned to objects by the Line Weight AutoCAD attribute,
the real value of width can only take a finite set of values from 0 to 2.11 mm, and
the specified value will be reduced to the nearest possible AutoCAD one. For
example, if you need to reduce the widths within the range between 1 mm and 1.5
mm to the value of 1,5 mm, you will obtain a vector line with the LineWeight = 1.58,
because Line Weight cannot accept a value of 1.5 mm and the nearest value is
1.58. If you enter a value that exceeds 2.11mm, then vector objects will be created
with the width 2.11 mm.
The reduced width value will be assigned to all vector objects with widths within the
specified interval if the width assignment checkbox is on.
To keep widths unmodified
If you do not want the lines within the interval to be rounded to a predefined width
specified in the Width box, then clear the checkbox in the corresponding row of the
table.
To assign width to an interval
Click on a width table line corresponding to the required interval, click on the Width
column and enter width value.
You can assign any AutoCAD layer name to an interval or select the Current value.
All vector objects, with width falling into within the specified interval, will be created
on the specified layer. If there is no layer with the specified name, then it will be
created during tracing (vectorization). If you choose Current, then the objects will be
created on the current AutoCAD layer.
To assign layer to an interval
Click on the width table line corresponding to the interval; click the Layer column in
the list. Select an existing layer from the list or enter a name of a new layer, which
will be created during vectorization.
You can assign any AutoCAD color to an interval, including the values Current,
ByLayer and ByBlock. All vector objects with widths within the specified interval will
