OCAD Methods

Defined as line symbol 107.0.

As this is a line object it can be drawn with any tool. If the bézier tool is used, care must be taken as dot spacing is dependent on location of nodes and handles. See bézier topic for more information.

Drawing Considerations

Earthwalls smaller than about 1m should use the small earth wall symbol. This symbol may be used for stone walls that have become overgrown and have the appearance of earthbanks.
