moep_type: moep_text
MOEP text features represent textual annotation placed at specific world coordinates. The full specification of the geometry includes an (X,Y,Z) position, the rotation of the text, the text string itself, the size of the text, and a specification of font, weight, and text group number.

Contents |
|
moep_rotation |
Determines the rotation applied to the text, measured in degrees counterclockwise from horizontal. Reprojectable: Yes |
|
moep_text_string |
The characters which make up a line of the text feature. The maximum length of a line of text is 66 characters. Several text features can be grouped into a single feature using the moep_text_group attribute. |
|
moep_text_size |
The size of the text feature, measured in ground meters. Reprojectable: Yes |
|
moep_font |
Specifies a font number for the text, an integer in the range 0..99. See the discussion below this table regarding the encoding of font, weight, and text group. |
|
moep_weight |
Specifies the weight of the text, an integer in the range 0..99. See the discussion below this table regarding the encoding of font, weight, and text group. |
|
moep_text_group |
Specifies a group number; several text features can be logically grouped together by giving them the same group number. This number is a five digit, decimal integer. See the discussion below this table regarding the encoding of font, weight, and text group. |
It is important to note the relationship between the font, weight, text group, and the optional attribute for the feature. If font, weight, and text group attributes are specified, MOEP uses the optional attribute of a text feature to store their values. When these are specified, the format of the attribute string is FFFWWWGGGGGG, where FFF is the font number, WWW is the weight, and GGGGGG is the text group number. Each number is right-justified in its field, padded to the left with spaces as necessary.
Similarly, when reading a text feature the optional attribute, if present, is broken down into a font, weight, and text group.
