| Non-Text based annotations are defined as annotation
related elements that do not have a text component. The following table
outlines the specific mappings for non-text based annotations:
Note: Not transferred (*) designates that the element or property
is not supported in the current release of the V5 Interactive Drafting
product.

Arrow without text
|
Arrow |
The CADAM
arrow supports a series of end conditions. Not all of these end
conditions are supported by the current version of the Interactive
Drafting product. Therefore, end conditions will be transferred
to the best matching end condition. |
Breakout

Polyline |
|
Dot
|
Circle or
areafill |
If the CADAM
element is not filled, the element is transferred as a circle. If the
CADAM element is filled, it is transferred as an areafill. |

Rectangle
|
Polyline or areafill |
If
the CADAM element is not filled, the element is transferred as a
polyline. If the CADAM element is filled, it is transferred as an
areafill. |
Section line

If the CADAM
element is not filled, the element is transferred as a polyline. If the
CADAM element is filled, it is transferred as an areafill. |

Areafill standard patterns

Areafill
pattern |
CADAM Drafting
areafill patterns are based on repeating lines or repeating cells.
The current Interactive Drafting product supports patterns based on
repeating lines only. The CADAM standard patterns based on
repeating lines (hatch, grid, steel, dashes, copper, rubber, aluminum
1, aluminum 2, titanium, plywood, plank, tile) are transferred to a
pattern simulating the CADAM pattern. CADAM standard patterns based on
repeating cells (brick, soil, hex, herring) are transferred as bitmap
image patterns.
The bitmap image patterns for these are CCDPatternMotifBrick.bmp,
CCDPatternMotifSoil.bmp, CCDPatternMotifHex.bmp, and
CCDPatternMotifHerring.bmp. These files are located in the directory
specified by the variable CATGraphicPath. |
User defined areafill patterns
|
Areafill
pattern |
User defined CADAM areafill patterns are
transferred as bitmap image patterns.
The CCD concrete pattern is provided as
CCDPatternMotifUserDef_concrete.bmp. Bitmap image patterns must be
created for any CADAM user defined patterns that are required. For
example, a pattern named CCDPatternMotifUserDef_XXX.bmp must be
created for the CADAM user defined pattern XXX. These files must be
placed in the directory specified by the variable CATGraphicPath. |
