Note 1

Middleware routing for all DimensionLine properties have Lookup & SetValue access to all subproperties per line.

Many tool pages will have import/export variable names but not necessarily have middleware access available for those names. These include buttons and colours which do have named variables as well e.g. for ticks, we have a button “hasarrows” and the colour is “colorarrows”. In lots of places where middleware variables are defined, these names are also used in the import/export of the properties with those names - shown below.

The American spelling of color is used because there are too many Microsoft system calls that use color instead of colour in the naming.

Note 2
