areaDelimitedMode

slt areaDelimitedMode cyclic { "adjacent" | "enclosedOnly" }

Description

Defines different ways of finding shapes. It considers the shapes that are partially enclosed within the area and lets you create, delete, and check slotting shapes based on the area.

• Create slot - the target is shape, therefore, only the shapes within the specified area or window are slotted.
• Delete Slot - the target is slot, therefore only the slot shapes within the specified area or window are deleted.
• Checking - only the objects within the specified area or window are checked.

The two modes that can be specified for the variable are:

• adjacent, in this mode, the regions of shapes that are in contact with the area or window are also considered and slotted.
• enclosedOnly, in this mode, only the portion of shapes that are within the area or window are slotted.

The default is adjacent.
