Headers
ntx_type: ntx_header
This is a special feature that is used to hold the NTX file header information. This is the first feature the NTX reader produces and must be the first feature processed by the NTX writer. If this is not the first feature processed by the NTX writer, the information in this feature is ignored, and instead default values for the main header will be used. (This feature is mainly used for NTX-to-NTX translations.) This feature type holds no geometry or graphical information. The supported attributes are as follows:
