SetLabelFrequency [Levels]

SetLabelFrequency turns on/off a range of labels in a contour map.

Syntax

object.SetLabelFrequency( FirstIndex, NumberToSet, NumberToSkip )

Parameter	Type	Required/ Optional	Default	Description
FirstIndex	Integer	Required		This specifies the first contour to label, the contour index starts at one not at the minimum elevation number.
NumberToSet	Integer	Required		This specifies the number of contour lines to label.
NumberToSkip	Integer	Required		This specifies the number of contour lines to skip between labeled lines.

Remarks

Whether or not a contour line is labeled depends on the above settings as well as the LabelEdgeDist, LabelLabelDist, and LabelTolerance settings. The following examples assume that every line can be labeled.

Examples:

If NumberToSet is set to 1 and NumberToSkip is set to 0, all lines are labeled.

If NumberToSet is set to 1 and NumberToSkip is set to 1, every other line is labeled.

Example

This example demonstrates how to label every fourth contour starting with the first contour level.
