Apart from the standard functions, SISCAD-P provides numerous functions particularly suited for CAD-applications, which can be supplemented by user-defined functions.

...
Even defining parameters, as for example length and distance, cannot always be individually modified.

...
In this formula the SISCAD-P function LINLEN#TEX2HTML_WRAP767# is used, which calculates the length of a given line segment.

...
To untie a constructional relation means that the corresponding relation is deleted within the CAD-model. The objects will remain, but will not adapt according to the original constructional relation in any later manipulation.

...
ACT = ACTive

...
PAS = PASsive

...
It's recommended to initialize number variables with value 0, text variables with empty string "", co-ordinate variables with the origin 0,0.

...
In the standard title blocks of SISCAD-P for example the single fields are assigned to with the help of text variables.

...
The SISCAD-P function LINLEN calculates the length of a given line. With the help of function CONVN2T this number is converted to a text (using 2 decimals places) and then concatenated with text "length: ..." (function TCAT).

...
If you are trying to rework this example and the created measure is to be seen in green, you may have forgotten either to activate parametrics or to change the color of the measure display within info parametric.
