Fields on the Plot line element properties form
Pen
The pen number is associated with a colour through a pen file that can be easily modified to suit your requirements.
Priority
Each item, line, text, symbol, etc. that is drawn on a map has a priority that is used to determine how items that clash should be drawn, or omitted. Title blocks should be designed so that there are no clashes between items within the title block. If items are placed outside the title block rectangle, pattern legends for example, it is important that they be given a priority high enough to ensure other map components do not clash them from the map.
X position, Y position
The values for the X and Y positions are obtained from the position defined by the mouse locations. These values are relative to the lower left corner of the title block. You may modify these values if they are not suitable.
Complete the PLOT LINE ELEMENT ELEMENT PROPERTIES form and choose Apply to draw the line in the required location in the title block.
