Text properties
A text in the vector editor has the following properties:
Text The maximum 8 character string.
Syntax for linkage to data; start with #@ followed by number n. n=0 gives the ObjectName, n=1..64 gives data parameters.'#@12' -> Text=Data[12].
Visible Set to 1 to make the shape visible in ATPDraw circuit (for internal use only)
Layer ATPDraw uses the layer information to turn on/off the visible flag dependent on user selections, for instance in the RLC element. It can be used to separate elements in a complex drawing, since it is possible to show individual layers (Edit layer combo box). All layers are drawn in the ATPDraw circuit.
Color Color code 0..255 (240-255 are the standard ATPDraw colors in the color grid to the right) of the text. More colors available from the color dialog. Nearest RGB color chosen.
Style Font style. Any combination; 0: normal, 1: Bold, 2: Italic, 4: Underline, 8: Strikeout.
Size Font size. 6 is barely readable in 100 % zoom (remember 200 % zoom is the standard vector editor setting).
Font A code for a few predefined fonts. Select from pull down menu.
Rotate Rotate the text with the icon or not.
Angle Initial rotation angle of the text. 0, 90, 180 and 270 degrees possible.
P.x, P.y Centre position of the text relative to the icon centre. The points are given relative to the icon centre. x is the horizontal axis increasing from -127..128 from left to right, while y is the vertical axis increasing from -127..128 from top to bottom.
