IfcCurveStyleFontAndScaling
Definition from ISO/CD
10303-46:1992: A
curve style font and scaling is a curve style font and a scalar factor
for that font, so that a given curve style font may be applied at
various scales.
Definition from IAI:
The IfcCurveStyleFontAndScaling allows for the
reuse of the same curve style definition in several sizes. The
definition of the CurveFontScale is the scaling of
a base curve style pattern to be used as a new or derived curve style
pattern.
NOTE
The CurveFontScale should not be mixed up
with the target plot scale.
An
example for IfcCurveStyleFontAndScaling is the
sizing of a basic curve style dash pattern 'dash' (visible 0.01m,
invisible 0.005m) into 'dash large' with CurveFontScale
= 2 (resulting in visible 0.02m, invisible 0.01m), and into
'dash small' with CurveFontScale =
0.5 (resulting in visible 0.005m, invisible 0.0025m).
