- Description
- Option `a' add T-solution to library:
- This option enables you to define a NEW T-solution online, i.e., that has not
- been predefined. It will remain the default T-solution until the end of the
- work session or until a new T-solution is defined using either this option or
- option `e' (DEFAULT or MODIFY). The T-solutions are saved in the TRULES.ARC
- file in the ARCA directory.
-
- Indicate and confirm the wall to be the "leg" of the T-junction, and the wall
- to be the "head" of the T-junction. The system highlights the first layer of
- the "leg", and asks you which layer no. of the "head" should penetrate to layer
- no. 1 of the "leg", and if the solution of this layer should be of the "join"
- type or of the "not-join" type (open path or no path between the layers
- respectively). The last two prompts are repeated by the number of "leg" layers,
- while this number is updated from prompt to prompt. The system then asks you to
- confirm the saving of the NEW T-solution, and if your definition applies to
- both sides of the "head" wall or to the defined side only.
-
- NOTE: This command will NOT overwrite your current working screen, but, in
- order to work with this option you have to have both a "leg" and a "head" for
- the NEW T-solution on screen.
-
- Option `e' edit the T-solution library:
- This option opens a display file containing the T-solution library. You are
- prompted to define the solution by either indicating the participants of the
- required T-solution, or using the names of the participants (the default). If
- the participants are on the screen, you may indicate and confirm the "leg" and
- the "head" from the T-solution library. If not, you may type both the names of
- the "leg" and "head" of the T-solution, e.g., l2, l3, etc.
-
- The system then displays all the relevant T-solutions, closing and saving your
- current file, and opening a special display file ($T$LIB). Each T-solution
- appears in a square with its number written inside.
-
- On the bottom of the screen area, there are two squares framed in white,
- describing both side options of "head" with the requested "leg". In addition
- to the T-solution squares, there are six options:
-
- ALL DEFAULT
- SAVE MODIFY
- QUIT DELETE
-
- You are prompted to select T-solutions from a square or to pick an option.
- The color of the square frame symbolizes the status of the T-solution:
-
- green = active T-solution
- red = non active T-solution (will not appear when executing \tjun command)
- blue = the current default T-solution; there may be two defaults:
- one that relates to the first layer of the "head" and the other that
- relates to the last layer of the "head" (the squares' number appears
- either in the upper-left part of the square or in the lower-left part).
- yellow = a T-solution marked for deletion
-
- The ALL option allows you to act in one of three ways:
- `s' select all the T-solutions,
- `d' deselect all the T-solutions, and
- `r' reverse the current status of selection.
- Use SAVE or QUIT to update your library or restore your original library
- respectively.
-
- The SAVE option keeps the current status of the walls in the TRULES.ARC file
- as the current library for display, and then restores the original file. You
- will be asked to confirm before execution.
-
- The QUIT option saves the solution library and then opens the file you were
- working on before activating this command. You will be asked to confirm before
- execution.
-
- The DEFAULT option allows you to change the system T-solution default. This
- applies when using \tjun command. You are asked to indicate and confirm the
- square of the T-solution to be the default. The system changes the new
- default's frame color to blue, and the former default to green. You may define
- up to two defaults for a T-solution library: one for the set of solutions
- defining the solutions for the first layer of the "head", and one for the set
- of solutions defining the solutions for the last layer of the "head".
-
- The MODIFY option asks you to indicate and confirm the square of the T-solution
- to modify. The system will zoom in on the requested T-solution after you press
- <ENTER>. The first layer of the T-solution "leg" is highlighted, and you are
- asked which layer no. of the "head" should penetrate to layer no. 1 of the
- "leg", and if the solution of this layer should be of the "join" type, or of
- the "not-join" type (open path or no path between the layers respectively).
- Those last two prompts are repeated by the number of the "leg" layers, while
- this number is updated from prompt to prompt. The system then asks you to
- confirm saving the T-solution, and if your definition applies to both sides
- of the "head" wall or only to the defined side.
-
- The DELETE option asks you to indicate and confirm the T-solution square for
- deletion. The frame of the T-solution selected for deletion changes to yellow.
- The system then asks if you wish to delete more T-solutions. The solutions are
- not actually deleted until the SAVE option is selected and can be unmarked by
- clicking again on the square.
-
- If you select one of the white frames on the bottom of the screen, you can
- define, on-line, a new T-solution for one side of the "head" or for both sides.
- The method is the same as for option `a', but here you will see the resulting
- T-solution to be added to the library, and it will become the default. The set
- of prompts is exactly the same as in option `a'.
-
- Option `p' plot the T-solution library:
- This option enables you to create a plot file from your T-solution library, in
- order to produce a hard copy. First define the requested library, either by
- name (default) or by indication (if the "leg" and "head" are on screen). If
- you are defining by name, enter the name of the "leg" and the "head". You are
- then asked to confirm the creation of the plot file from your T-solutions
- library. You may define a plot file name of up to eight characters long.
-
- NOTE: The system opens a temporary file to display
- the current wall library. The file you were working on is saved and closed,
- and the system file $T$LIB is opened. This file is always displayed in plan
- and parallel view. After a "legal" end of the command, the system restores
- your original working file with your last view. If, by chance, you get "stuck"
- in $T$LIB file and your original file is not restored, execute the \rslib
- command and the system will automatically restore your original file.
