The pop-up window that appears when you click on each of these options displays a list of the styles available in the project, with their parameters organised into columns.

Furthermore, using the options on the top toolbar of each style list, you can add new styles, edit them if necessary, duplicate them, delete them or reorder them in the list.

You can also export a style or a group of styles to files on the hard drive in various formats for use in other projects, as well as import them from other projects.

The styles created will be available for selection when inserting graphic elements.

For each of the "Sheets" in the list, you can set parameters such as the format, orientation and margins:

• Dimensions
  • Format type

This is used to configure the list of available line styles.

For each "Line" style, you can configure the following settings:

• Reference
• Linetype
• Scale factor
• Pen thickness
• Printing colour
• Identification colour

Line styles can be saved in an .obllinpt file.

Text

This is used to configure the list of available text styles.

Each "Text" style specifies:

• Colour

Text styles can be saved in an .obltxtpt file.

Dimension

This is used to configure the list of available dimensions.

When editing each "Dimension" style, the program displays four tabs: "Text", "Linear dimensions", "Areas" and "Angles". In each of these, you can adjust parameters such as the lines and symbols to be used, or the thickness of each part of the dimensions:

• "Text" tab
  Configure the text for dimensions:
  • Select the "Units" to be used (specifying their representative "Label" and the number of decimal places to be used) for "Length" and "Angle" measurements. When this "Text with units" option is enabled, the dimension text displays the units.
  • You can also set the "Font", its size, "Style" and colour.

• "Linear dimensions" tab
  Configure the lines and symbols used to create the dimension representation:
  • Specify the "Position of the text with respect to the elevation line", whether it is outside, centred or inside.
  • Enter the values for "Origin offset" and "Extend end".
  • Select the symbols for the "Initial" and "Final" "Ends", as well as their size
  • Finally, define the "Styles" (including "Linetype", "Pen thickness", "Printing colour" and "Identification colour") of the:
    • Elevation line
    • Auxiliary line
    • Symbol

• "Areas" tab
  Configure the display of area dimensions:
  • First, you are asked whether you want to "Draw the polygon that defines the area"
  • Next, define the styles (including "Stroke", "Pen thickness", "Print colour" and "Identification colour") for:
    • The "Polygon" representing the defined area, including the "Line" and its "Fill"
    • The "Text box" for the area dimension, also including the "Line" and an optional "Fill".

• "Angles" tab:
  Configure angle dimension elements:
  • Enter the "Ratio between symbol size and text height".
  • Select the symbols for the "Initial" and "Final" "Ends", as well as their size.
  • Finally, define the "Styles" (including "Linetype", "Pen thickness", "Printing colour" and "Identification colour") of the:
    • Elevation line
    • Symbol

Dimension styles can be saved in an .obllinemeasurept file.
