Planet Rings and Extra Ring Points

Planet ring/Extra ring properties in the "Wheel Designer"...

•Inner & Outer Circle - These define the circles between which the zodiac or dial ring will be drawn.

•Glyph, Degree, Sign, Minute, Retro Position - These must be numbers from 0 to 1. They indicate where each item is positioned relative to the inner and outer circles. A value of 0.25 positions it 1/4 of the way from the inner to the outer circle, and a value of .75 positions it 3/4 of the way. If this value is set to 0, then this item is not displayed. For example, if you wish to display only the glyph, degree text and zodiac sign, then assign them non-zero values, but give zero values to the minute and retro positions.

•Glyphs, Degrees, Minutes FontSize - This allows you to choose in what font size this item should be displayed. Ignored if not displayed.

•Glyphs, Degrees Bold - This must be either True or False. This allows you to choose whether this item should be displayed in a normal font if false, or a bold font if true. Ignored if not displayed.

•Glyphs Italic - This must be either True or False. This allows you to choose whether the sign glyphs on each house cusp should be displayed in a normal font if false, or an italic font if true. Ignored if not displayed.

•Inner & Outer Tick Length - These must be numbers from 0 to 1. They indicate how long the tick marks are in relation to the distance between the inner and outer circles. Use a value of zero to switch off the either of these sets of tick marks.

•Tick Width - This is the line width used to draw the inner and/or outer tick marks at the planetary positions on the inner and outer circles. Ignored if the tick lengths are zero.

•Glyphs as Text – This must be either True or False. If false, then planets are shown as glyphs. If true then planets are shown as three-letter abbreviations.

•Signs as Text - This must be either True or False. If false, then signs are shown as glyphs. If true then signs are shown as two-letter abbreviations.
