FIll Construction Method Properties......? Anyone

Anonymous — Tue, 05 Jun 2007 21:02:13 GMT

Is there a way to adjust the properties of the 'fill handle'..??..
just curious if its possible....I know I can completely make the fill handles disappear using the display options and/or I can disable the use of fill handles all together for fills and what not. But is there a way to change the length & color of just the fill handle itself?

Thanks fellow cadmates!

I think the color is always the fill color and it is always 1 meter long. I've never found a way to change them.

Except if the Fill Outline is added. The the color of the fill handle is the color of the fill outline pen. If your fill is bounded by walls, maybe it is feasible to add the fill outline and change the outline pen?

thanks, guess thats about everything I can do to change the fill handles on AC9.

I wonder if AC 10 or 11 added more parameters for the fill handle?..would be nice....

Same behaviour in AC10 & AC11. Not considered a big issue in the big picture I guess

I wonder why it is so important to you - if you're having trouble finding it, maybe try placing it outside the fill?

actually, its the other way around, I see it fine, I just want the length of the fill handle less and maybe a different color....its personal/user preference
