numeric list A list of numbers. In AutoSketch, the syntax for numeric lists allows loops and repetitions of both relative and absolute expressions. For example, you could express the numeric list "1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10" as the loop "1 TO 10 BY 1" or as the repetition "1++9@1." OLE For Object Linking and Embedding. An information-sharing method in which data from a source document can be linked to or embedded in a destination document. Selecting the data in the destination document opens the source application so that the data can be edited. See also embed and link. OLE Object See embedded object and linked object. offset The distance measured perpendicularly from the nearest segment of an existing entity or input line. Offsets are positive to the right of an entity when looking from the start toward the end of a line segment. open curve A curve whose beginning and ending points are not automatically connected. operator A keyword, such as AND, or a symbol, such as "*," that manipulates values in an expression. See also expression. ordinate dimension A dimension used to mark either the x- or y-coordinate of a specific point in a drawing. orientation The position of a page. Portrait orientation displays a page taller than it is wide. Landscape orientation displays a page wider than it is tall. origin The point having the location 0,0 in any coordinate system. Orthogonal lock modifier The lock modifier which restricts input to a points aligned either horizontally or vertically with the previous point. See also lock modifier. page A single piece of paper. By default the page size is set as the printer page size. For instance, if you select an envelope size in your default printer setup that will be used as the default page size. If the selected page is larger than the printer page, output will be automatically tiled onto multiple pages. Also a section of a dialog box or property sheet reached by clicking a tab. page coordinates Coordinate system based on output size. If your scale is 1:1 and the drawing origin is located at the lower left corner of the page, paper coordinates are the same as drawing coordinates. page tiling The process of tiling pages horizontally and vertically into rows and columns so as to print the entire page. page view The view which displays the page as large as possible in the drawing window. See also view. pan To "move" a drawing in a pane by using Realtime Pan or by selecting two points. The points specify the distance and direction of movement. Panning does not change the level of magnification, or zoom level, for the pane. pane A rectangular portion of a drawing window capable of independent zooming, panning, and so on. You can position the split boxes to create either one, two, or four panes in a drawing window. pattern For polygons, the property that specifies its fill as either solid, hatch, or none. For hatch symbols, the hatch used to create the symbol. 370 | Glossary
