[P: <PointName>,<X>,<Y>,<D> ]
[PB: <PointName>,<X>,<Y>,<D> ]
[PT: <PointName>,<X>,<Y>,<D> ]

<PointName> == <Name>

Point, Point Behind, Point Transparent

Defines a place for showing a picture at the coordinates <X>,<Y> with height <D> in pixel. After this modifier a [ <Point_Name> : <PictureName> ] modifier can be used with the same result, as a [O: <PictureName>,<X>,<Y>,<D> ] command. The value <D> can be omitted.  Its default is 0.

The use of these commands can make many copies without the burden of a lot of typing.  They predefine point coordinates at which overlay pictures often appear.  Usually the command [P: ] is saved in one of the macros which are attached to vehicles in the Stock List or in a macro definition in the Timetable file,  and the [ <PointName>:<PictureName> ] modifier stays in a Movement line in the Timetable file.

The [P: ] command copies the transparent pixels of the overlay picture to the base picture;

[PB: ] copied behind the base picture and [PT: ] uses a transparent copy: the transparent pixels of the overlay are not copied to the base picture.

There are 3 groups of similar modifiers.

The [O: ], [OT: ], [OB: ] modifiers put the overlay picture immediately on the specified position.

The [P: ], [PT: ], [PB: ] modifiers define the place for the overlay picture (usually in a macro definition), the overlay picture will be specified in a following modifier.

The [D: ], [DT: ], [DB: ] modifiers define both the position and the overlay picture (usually in a macro definition), the overlay picture will be placed only at the usage of a following modifier, having to specify only the name of the overlaying, a single word.
