Once the first point for the new line has been measured, the Active Lines list will set and display the new line as current. The key to note is the display of -Start Line- in the Active Lines list. Selecting one of them and pressing the OK button will make it the current line. When you press the button a screen will appear listing all your active lines. Much like the first line in the Project, just select the desired description from the list and select the desired draw option before shooting the first point for the new line.
For example, if the last sideshot in the raw file was to point 58, then the next time the Project is setup we will set the next id to 59. If you open an existing Project, then we scan the raw file for the last sideshot or store point and if we find one, we'll set the point number accordingly. In a new Project this field will always start at 1. You can change it at any time prior to recording your shot. This field displays the point number that will be assigned to your next shot. By default it opens the Coordinate Database, but this can be changed in the Keyboard Shortcuts settings. This button can be customized to start any command. Simply re-select the 3-Point Arc button before measuring the next POC. The current draw option will change from Draw 3-Pt Arc to Draw Line after the third shot and the arc is complete.Ĭompound 3-point arcs are supported. Shoot the 3rd point and the arc will appear. After measuring to the 2nd point, a dashed line will appear to illustrate that a 3-Point arc is in progress. (Note that this is not the radius point). However, to switch to 3-Point arc within an ongoing Line, select the Draw 3-Point Arc button before shooting the second of the three points that will define the arc (POC: Point on Curve).
This function will draw a best-fit curve through your points as you shoot them.ģ-Point arcs can be started using the same method as for a Line or Curvy Line. This is used to toggle on and off the draw curvy lines button. When turned on points will be connected with a line as you measure them. This is used to toggle on and off the draw lines function. This button takes you into the Main Menu. There is also a user-programmable button that can be customized to start any command. Just like previous versions of FieldGenius you can control your linework by tuning on and off the line, arc and curvy toggles. The Topo Toolbar is used to help automate linework as well as show you the description and next point number for your shot.
