Type: Interactive Application
Interactively edits a text label in a VrOne workspace.
Detailed Description
Allows interactive, graphical editing of an existing test label in a VrOne workspace. Text labels may be changed, moved, copied, re-sized and rotated.
Entity Elevations When Editing in 2D
When editing using a two dimensional device such as the system mouse, there are two parameters that control the assignment of the elevation during a move, copy, and snap operation. Z Mode Move may be set to either “hold” the original elevation or to set the elevation to the “Active Z”. Z Mode Snap may be set to “hold” the original elevation, set the elevation to the “Active Z”, or “Snap” when snapping the current text entity to an existing entity.

Parameters
Z Mode Move (ZMOMOV=)
When using a two dimensional input device such as the system mouse, this parameter controls the elevation of the text entity when moving or copying the entity. Option 0 is “hold”, which maintains the original elevation. Option 1 is “Active Z”, which sets the entity elevation to the current Active Z.
Z Mode Snap (ZMOSNA=)
When using a two dimensional input device such as the system mouse, this parameter controls the elevation of the text entity when moving or copying the text then snapping it to an existing entity. Option 0 is “hold”, which maintains the original elevation. Option 1 is “Active Z”, which sets the entity elevation to the current Active Z. Option 2 sets the elevation to that of the entity to which the text was snapped.
Inherit Function Key Parameters (FKEY=)
Changes text parameters to the parameters in a function key except text label.
