1 Background: This determines the way the colors of the back- ground are painted. The following options are available: •   No Background – Color interpolation for background fill for trace groups. Files are imported with the exact spacing of data •   Default – Defined in PIP file •   Always Off – No color interpolation •   Always 1D – Displays the background in baseline direction only •   Always 2D – Displays the lines in biaxial interpolation 2 Wiggle: This option sets the way that Canvas displays the line segments, determines the way points are joined together, and fits a curve to discrete points as defined by the PIP file. Supported resam- pling methods are as follows: •   Default – Defined in PIP file •   Linear – Linear interpolation in which adjacent sample points are joined by straight lines.  This will display the smoothest connection between segments. •   Replicate – Repeats the value between samples and displays true non-curved lines between segments. Using AutoCAD DWG format The AutoCAD DWG import filter lets you import native AutoCAD (r14) files into Canvas. This filter fits an AutoCAD drawing to a doc- ument size of 8.5 by 11 inches. To use this filter, choose File > Open or File > Place and select AutoCAD DWG format in the directory dialog box. Using Drawing Interchange Format (DXF) Drawing Interchange Format (DXF) is a format developed by Autodesk, Inc., for exchanging data with AutoCAD and other draw- ing applications. DXF format provides platform-independent storage of 2D and 3D technical drawings and supports multiple layers. Can- vas supports DXF files containing ASCII data, but does not support DXF files that contain data in binary format.
