render depth A value that specifies the smoothness of fitted curves. Higher values make curves smoother. Lower values make them faster to display and print. resizing handle A scaling handle that appears when an entity is selected, or handles that appear around a selection set. rich text A unique text format which allows bold, italics, underline, and strikethrough formatting to be applied to characters within a text string. Documents that use rich text are often saved as Rich Text Files (.rtf). rotated dimension A linear dimension oriented at an angle you specify rather than at one determined by the control points. rotation basepoint The point about which an entity or selection set is rotated. rotation handle Handle extending from about point of a selection set used for rotation. See also handle. round To replace the intersection of two lines with an arc of a specified radius. See also bevel. rubber-band The dynamic display of an entity or region as it is entered or resized while you drag or move the mouse. rubber stamp array A series of entities arranged in a linear, circular, or rectangular pattern. scalar Numeric value without unit conversion factor., i.e., a unitless number. An example of this is Text Aspect, on the Label page of the Linear Dimension Format dialog box. scale In AutoSketch, the ratio between the size of an entity on scaled output and the size of the real world object it represents. For example, if an entity that is one inch long on scaled output represents a real world object that is 48 inches long, the drawing scale is 1:48. segment A straight line between control points in a curve or between vertices in a polygon or polyline. selection fence A selection tool that allows you to select entities by creating special polyline. Only entities that the polyline, or fence, crosses are selected. Selection handles Control points which allow you to move, rotate, or resize an entity by clicking and dragging. Selection Modifier A dialog box that allows you to modify the current selection set by adding or subtracting entities on the basis of layer, symbol type, field value, or position in relation to a marquee. selection operator An operation used to combine selection qualifiers in the Selection Modifier. AutoSketch contains three selection operators: AND, OR, and NOT. selection qualifier One of the commands used to select groups of entities in the Selection Modifier. selection set A group of selected entities. The selection set is indicated by selection handles around the highlighted entities. See also handle and Selection Modifier Glossary | 373
