The ControlDot object serves for controlling and accessing properties of control handles of ConceptDraw shapes. Control handles allow the shape's properties to be modified automatically when the control handle is repositioned. Each control handle has a formula that determines its coordinates with respect the the coordinate system of the shape to which it belongs. For example, you might use a control handle to adjust the roundness of a shape's corners or to reshape an arrow.
Name | Description |
X | The X-coordinate of the control handle in the coordinate system of the shape it belongs to. |
Y | The Y-coordinate of the control handle in the coordinate system of the shape it belongs to. |
XDyn | The X-coordinate of the end of the line which comes out of the control handle when the latter is repositioned. |
YDyn | The Y-coordinate of the end of the line which comes out of the control handle when the latter is repositioned. |
XBehaviour | Sets the behavior of the control handle relative to the X axis when the shape is resized. |
YBehaviour | Sets the behavior of the control handle relative to the Y axis when the shape is resized. |
Comment | The tip that comes up when you move the mouse pointer over the control handle. |
