[EDC: <X>,<Y>,<W>,<H> ]

Electric Down Clear

Similar to the short form of the [E: ]: command, this is used when the original picture has a pantograph depicted in a raised state and the pantograph fully disappears (will be lowered behined a coverage) in its lowered state. The command animates the lowering of the pantograph, but as with the   [E: ] command, the pantograph “jumps” back and forth between its different states.

The commands [EC: ], [ED: ], [EDC: ], [EU: ], [EX: ], [EM: ], [EMC: ], [EMX: ] as well as the use of the _SAR pictures in the form <BasePicture> < <_SAR_Picture>  are only intended to facilitate the use of base pictures which were not specifically drawn for the traffic program. The preferred method of depicting pantographs in Traffic is by way of a series of phase pictures (which should be grouped into a single image containing all of the portions of the animation) in order to create a fluid, animated motion.  The second best method is to depict both pantographs in their lowered state and to draw each pantograph's raised state as a separate graphic.
