List of Options
The following options are displayed.
Insertion Scale
Controls the default scale for inserting blocks and drawings into a drawing.
Source Content Units Sets source content units value when INSUNITS is set
to 0.
If Unspecified-Unitless is selected, the object is not scaled when inserted.
(INSUNITSDEFSOURCE system variable)
Target Drawing Units Sets target drawing units value when INSUNITS is set
to 0. (INSUNITSDEFTARGET system variable)
Coordinate Display
Controls the display of the coordinates display.
Display Coordinates on Drawing Toggles the coordinates display in the
lower-right corner of the drawing area. (
VPCOORDDISPLAY on page 1553 system
variable)
3D Objects
Controls the number of isolines to display for surfaces and meshes.
U Size Sets the surface density for PEDIT Smooth in the M direction and the
U isolines density on surface objects. (SURFU system variable)
V Size Sets the surface density for PEDIT Smooth in the N direction and the
V isolines density on surface objects. (SURFV system variable)
AutoTrack Settings
Controls the settings that relate to AutoTrack
™
behavior, which is available
when polar tracking or object snap tracking is turned on (see DSETTINGS).
Display Polar Tracking Vector Displays a vector along specified angles when
polar tracking is on. With polar tracking, you can draw lines along angles.
Polar angles are 90-degree divisors, such as 45, 30, and 15 degrees.
(TRACKPATH system variable = 2)
In a 3D view, a polar tracking vector parallel to the Z axis of the UCS is also
displayed, and the tooltip displays +Z or -Z for the angle depending on the
direction along the Z axis.
Display Full-screen Tracking Vector Tracking vectors are construction lines
from which you can draw objects at specific angles or in specific relationships
to other objects. If this option is selected, alignment vectors are displayed as
infinite lines. (TRACKPATH system variable = 1)
