◆ CompactFileSave

const wxChar AC_KEYS::CompactFileSave[] = wxT( "CompactSave" )

static

When set to true, this will wrap polygon point sets at 4 points per line rather than a single point per line.

Single point per line helps with version control systems

◆ DrawArcAccuracy

const wxChar AC_KEYS::DrawArcAccuracy[] = wxT( "DrawArcAccuracy" )

static

For drawsegments - arcs.

Distance from an arc end point and the estimated end point, when rotating from the start point to the end point. 0 will not allow any approximate result, and the arc will not show. Squared value for performances, in system unit.

◆ DrawArcCenterStartEndMaxAngle

const wxChar AC_KEYS::DrawArcCenterStartEndMaxAngle[] = wxT( "DrawArcCenterStartEndMaxAngle" )

static

For drawsegments - arcs.

When drawing an arc, the angle ( center - start ) - ( start - end ), can be limited to avoid extremely high radii. The value is the tan( angle )
