Associating symbols to styles. Visualizing symbols

You can associate symbols to a style while you are defining the style, or later, while editing a style. The symbol-to-style association is part of the style's visual properties. After you associate a symbol to a style, you can set EngView to display the symbol-enriched styles on the screen — see Step 6 below.

To associate a symbol to a style

1. On the Tools menu, click Global Styles.

The Global Styles dialog box appears.

2. In the Style Name list, select the style with which you want to associate a symbol.
3. In the style's Visual tab, select the Symbol check box.
4. Do any of the following:
   • In the drop-down list, select a symbol for the style.

   NOTE: The list offers a set of default symbols loaded along with your installation.

   • To select your own symbol, click the browse button and navigate to the symbol file.
5. Click OK.
6. To see the symbols on the screen, in the graphical area, right-click, point to Show, and then check Style Symbols.
