Refernce Plot Width and line attributes

[ct]

Scenario:
I draw rays but want to add a plot so the user can define his plot with and line attributes.

Question
How do I retrieve/reference these plot values for my draw ray? I can set the values with "Plots[0].Pen.Width" but what is the syntax to reference them?

Cheers

Hello ct,

Thanks for your post.

If your end goal is to obtain the users preferences for line width and line style and plot style, you can use properties to allow the user to select them and then can work with the variables in your code.

For example, to get a line width:

[Description("Width for MA plot.")]
[Category("3. MA Plot")]
[Gui.Design.DisplayNameAttribute("3.Line Width MA")]
public int Plot0Width
{
get { return plot0Width; }
set { plot0Width = Math.Max(1, value); }
}

To get the plot style:

[Description("PlotStyle for MA plot.")]
[Category("3. MA Plot")]
[Gui.Design.DisplayNameAttribute("1.Plot Style MA")]
public PlotStyle Plot0Style
{
get { return plot0Style; }
set { plot0Style = value; }
}

To get the dashstyle:

[Description("DashStyle for MA plot.")]
[Category("3. MA Plot")]
[Gui.Design.DisplayNameAttribute("2.Dash Style")]
public DashStyle Dash0Style
{
get { return dash0Style; }
set { dash0Style = value; }
}
