| Item | Used to |
| Code Lookup | Select a code lookup table. Refer to the Lookup Table topic and the Utilities/ Tables/Lookup Table commands for additional information on the benefits and use of code lookup tables. Currently, code lookup files are applicable to import data from all other formats to LISCAD and only applicable to export from LISCAD to IDEX, User Definable, MX Moss(GENIO), Civilcad, Foresight, Geocomp, Keays, Micromap, SEGP1, SURPAC and Turbosurv. |
| Symbol Lookup | Select the file for matching symbols. The file must be a text file with an SLU extension and must have been previously created by the user and stored in the User folder. Each line in the file must contain a LISCAD symbol identifier and a matching other system symbol name separated by space=space. Example: If you wish to match a LISCAD symbol "SYM1" to an IDEX symbol "25", the following line would be required in the selected SLU file. SYM1 = 25 Currently, symbol lookup files are only applicable to IDEX, AutoCAD and MicroStation conversions. |
| Line style Lookup | Select the file for matching line styles. The file must be a text file with an LLU extension and must have been previously created by the user and stored in the User folder. Each line in the file must contain a LISCAD line style identifier and a matching other system line style name separated by space=space Example: If you wish to match a LISCAD line style "LINE1" to an AutoCAD line style "FENCE", the following line would be required in the selected LLU file. LINE1 = FENCE The following example line style lookup file is provided with the system: Microstn.llu matches the appropriate LISCAD line styles to the eight (0 to 7) standard line styles available in MicroStation V7. Currently, line style lookup files are only applicable to export from LISCAD to IDEX, MicroStation, AutoCAD, Civilcad, and ForeSight and import from MicroStation, AutoCAD, Leica System 1200 and Leica Viva conversions to LISCAD. |
