Coloring like lines

[zeynal.sabas]

Hi,


I am using Zenon Energy Edition 7.60.
I want to color any shape exactly like Line with using ALC. There is option to check "color from ALC "box for Line Properties , altough being same option for other shapes I can't use it.

What should I do for coloring any shapes like Lines?

Regards,
Zeynal.

If you like that ALC colors some shapes (like circle, rectangle etc.) then you have to place such graphic in a Combined-Element.
Hint: there are ready-to-use symbols in 'Global symbol library' -> 'Substation'. 

On a screen, when directly drew, only Lines and Pipes (and Combined Elements) can be configured to use 'color from ALC'. 

In ALC, Lines or Pipes are representing the connections between functional elements of an electrical/industrial grid. The grid's functional elements (e.g. a switch, a source, a consumer etc.) are represented by Combined-Elements, so only they can use any shape as graphical representation.
