Revision of "Representation" page in catalogs

Under Catalogs, General and within the concrete grade catalog, insulation material catalog and the brick/tile catalog, the entries for Show lines on the Display tab have been rearranged and supplemented.

Initially, the three option fields for Show lines (correspond to the general settings, Settings from transferred component and Custom definition) are summarized in a selection dialog box, and the selection dialog boxes for Pen, Line and Color are arranged vertically below this to provide more space within the dialog.

Note: This change was also carried out in the lattice girder catalog. The following extensions to the dialogs only apply to the concrete grade catalog, insulation material catalog and the brick/tile catalog.

Beneath the three selection dialog boxes for Pen, Line and Color there is now a new, fourth Layer icon for selecting the layer of the material in question.

This new button can, just like the other three selection dialog boxes, only be selected where Show lines = Custom definition at that point.

Clicking the button for the Layer opens the Select Layer dialog. Precisely one layer can be selected at this point. After confirmation of the dialog with OK the short name of the chosen layer is shown on the icon for the layer at that point.

When searching for a layer, the Select layer dialog contains the Find catalog entry icon. When in the dialog box Find catalog entry define the entry to be searched for using the search for field, then if required, select the exact search option if it is necessary to distinguish between lower and upper-case letters. Upon confirming the dialog, the defined search text is searched for from the marked row. In this case, the Full name column is searched first. If no entry is found here then the Short name column is searched, and if the desired entry is not found there, then the LayerNr. Column is searched as well.

If an appropriate entry is found then the corresponding row is highlighted. If the desired entry was not found, then select Find catalog entry once again. The last search text is still entered and you can confirm the dialog immediately. The next entry is highlighted. If no suitable entry is found in the three columns that are being searched, then the selection remains unchanged.

This expansion of the dialogs makes it possible, for example, to lay components or even layers, depending on concrete grade, on their own layers or to lay insulation material and bricks/tiles on their own layer depending on the material selected, and to apply the layer templates for displaying the layers if desired.
