Diamond


Diamonds are defined by their center, length, and width.

The example to the left shows the contents of the Graphic Details Drawer when a Diamond is selected. To view this information use the Show Item Details menu command found on the Tools menu of the Main menu.

To show the information for a Diamond item on a drawing, the drawer must be open and the Diamond must be selected. The Diamond of interest must be the only item selected.

The coordinates for the center of the Diamond are shown in the numeric text boxes labeled "X" and "Y". The location of the Diamond may be checked in this manner or the Diamond may be moved by entering a new value for either coordinate.

The length (X dimension) and height (Y dimension) of the Diamond are shown in the numeric text boxes. The Diamond's size may be checked in this manner or changed by entering the new value in the text box.

These lengths are shown in the Units (cm, inches, points, ...) defined for the document on the Scale parameter panel. Each coordinate is the distance from the origin which is defined on the Scale panel and may be adjusted by dragging a Ruler.
