In this segment the symbolic definitions are accommodated. It can be worked on with the normal data bank procedures, however, it can also happen with the command LoadTable.

 

The data of this segment are interpreted in special kind. In the data of a normal segment references on this segment can appear in the form of symbolic elements. A symbolic element exists of a position, a direction and a symbolic number. Then this symbolic number is understood as an ID of an object from the symbolic segment and then this object is shown in the desired position, if necessary rotatedly. As an ID it is used the ObjektID without PlanID. The first object with the suitable ID is always searched. If several these objects exist, the first one is found. Objects in the symbolic segment can contain attributes. From these attributes the attributes have RefX and RefY a meaning for Moskito. They are understood as a width and height of the symbol and are used for scaling of the symbols if these should be used as single elements in the drawing. The unity of these values is 1/100 mm. The values are filed as symbolic contents and are upright from the type (4 bytes). SYD is used as an other attribute. It generates a recess around the point with variable radius. The radius is filed in the symbolic contents as 4-byte-upright and has the unity 1/100 mm
