Configures Special Filter

What

Configures the drawing transformation for the Qs_conv command.

Why

To set the different entity conversions (Conversion1, Conversion2, etc.) that will be performed in succession, automatically, by the Qs_conv command .

How

The command brings up the following dialog box on the monitor:

In the dialog, you can use the Add button to add a conversion to the active configuration, setting its characteristics with the following dialog window:

In the example above, you want to transform all the line entities, of white color and LineType CONTINUOUS (Source), described in the upper part of the window, on a layer called contour (Destination) by setting its color and LineType to bylayer. To set the different fields in the "Source" part of the window, you need to select the row to be modified and press the "Edit" button, or double-click on the row concerned. By doing so, a new window appears that describes (on the right side: List) all the various properties that can be added (on the left side: Selection) to the previously selected field by pressing the "Add" button.

The different conversions created in the main window (all together), can be saved in a configuration file using the Save button; a file with the *.FLT extension is generated that can be recalled with the Load button whenever needed. With the New button you start a new configuration, losing (if you have not saved) the different current configurations. By selecting a conversion and pressing the Remove button, you delete it from the currently active configuration.
