Command line

It is a line where all the commands and parameters are enetered.
All the commands entered into the command line may also be used in HOT KEYS, SIDEBAR MENU, as well as may be entered into controller's fields.

There are three ways to run a function:

1.NEXT command, e.g. setzoom=next  
If this function is based on a list including a few parameters – just like zoom has three enlargements with a scale to define – the NEXT command lets you switch between three zoom scales  

2.YES or NO command  
YES – turns a selected function on, NO – turns it off  

3.NOT command  
logical NOT command lets you switch from NO function to YES and the other way round, depending on which function is active         


Below you will find examples of using the above commands:

setzoom=nextswitching over zooms,  
roam=notswitches a work mode (3D environment or a cursor work in 2D environment) please pay attention that this function may also be run by two commands,  
roam=yesturns roam on (work in 3D environment),  
roam=noturns roam off (work with a free cursor in 2D environment). As you can see, using two commands is not necessary, because having the command roam=not, the roam mode is turned on or off with one single command,  
flat=notturns flat mode on or off (flattens a 3D image to a 2D map, moving on a Z cursor height).
