         (This document covers version 0.8 of the '2D Connection Line' behavior, current as of 2005-Mar-25)


         Description


         While the Connection Line behavior creates a cylinder to connect two points in 3D space, this behavior draws a 2D line on a separate layer. That layer

            must

         have its camera set to orthographic mode.


         This behavior creates a 2D Rectangle object to draw the line, so it is relatively lightweight to use. Note that the

            Current Location?

         option produces better results, but requires significantly more calculations to keep the line synced with the current location of objects (instead of where they were last frame).


         Basic Properties


            Start Object


            The object to connect the 'start' of the line to.


            End Object


            The object to connect the 'end' of the line to.


            Line Layer


            The (orthographic) layer to put the lines on.


         Advanced Properties


            Line Color


            Color for the line.


            Line Width


            Pixel size for the line.


            Line Opacity


            Opacity of for the line.


            Line Glow


            Emissive Power of the line.


            Blending Mode


            The type of transparency blending to use for the line.


            Current Location?


            Calculate the current location of objects, instead of the last-frame location?
