Return to Statement

Assign Object Attributes Example

This example demonstrates the use of the ASATT statement.

$$
$$ Declarations
$$
    ENTITY/LN(4),CR(2)
    STRING/ATT(6,132)
$$
$$ Geometry Definition
$$
    LN(1) =LINE/-1,-1,1,-1
    LN(2) =LINE/1,-1,1,1
    LN(3) =LINE/1,1,-1,1
    LN(4) =LINE/-1,1,-1,-1
    CR(1) =CIRCLE/-.5,-.5,.25
    CR(2) =CIRCLE/.5,.5,.25
    ATT(1)='USE'
    ATT(2)='PART EDGE'
$$
$$ Attribute Assignment
$$
    ASATT/LN,ATT(1..2)
$$
$$ Reassign Value for
$$
    ATT(2)='MOUNTING HOLE'
    ATT(3)='DRILL'
    ATT(4)='.5 DIA. .75 DEEP'
    ATT(5)='TAP'
    ATT(6)='9/16 18 THREAD'
$$
$$ Attribute Assignment
$$
    ASATT/CR,ATT

This example would assign attributes to each object in the arrays LN and CR in the following manner:

Objects	Attribute Title	Attribute Value
LN(1..4)	USE	PART EDGE
CR(1..2)	USE	MOUNTING HOLE
CR(1..2)	DRILL	.5 DIA. .75 DEEP
CR(1..2)	TAP	9/16-18 THREAD
