You can change whether individual vertical lines avoid collisions, which can affect horizontal spacing. You can do this for the current layout and frame chain only, or for all layouts and frame chains.
Prerequisite
-
The lower zone is shown.
-
Properties
is selected in the lower zone toolbar. -
Graphic Editing
is selected in the Engrave toolbox. -
You have chosen the appropriate property scope for local properties.
Procedure
- In Engrave mode, select the vertical lines whose collision avoidance you want to enable/disable.
- In the Properties panel, activate Avoid collisions in the Vertical Lines group.
- Activate/Deactivate the corresponding checkbox.
Result
The selected vertical lines avoid collisions when the checkbox is activated, and do not avoid collisions when the checkbox is deactivated. If the property scope was set to Locally, this change only takes effect in the current layout and frame chain.
When the property is deactivated, vertical lines follow their default setting for collision avoidance.
You can change the default collision avoidance behavior for each line in the Edit Lines dialog.
