Adjust rubberbandding path

RVERP
RVERP over 12 years ago

Hi,

I have created several skill procedures that draw cutom paths.  The problem is that I don't see a preview while drawing the path, only a rubberbanding path with always has a with of 1.

Idealy, I would see a preview while adding points to the path (like in the Create Path and create Multipart path functions).

I hear you think, why don't you just make a multipart path template, but I want to use an options form to set different parrameters instead of having a huge list with template flavors.

 

Thx

Rik

    If you are using enterPath to draw your rubber banding path, then you can use changeEnterFun to change the width value on this enter function. By default, the changeEnterFun will cancel the current enter function and start the new one, but if you store off your points using an addPointProc, then you can have the changeEnterFun pick up the points that have already been entered.

    The first argument would be 'enterPath, the rest of the arguments would be the same as those you gave to the original enterPath call, except of course you would change the width and pass in some points if you want.
