Move or Copy Traverse Move or Copy Traverse... Open the Move or Copy traverse dialog.
This dialog is used to either move a selected traverse in the displayed list to the end of the list, or create a copy of the current traverse.
Traverse Properties Properties... Open the Traverse Properties dialog.
This dialog is used to display and edit the name of the current traverse and its code. This code is used for a line segment if no code is entered into the code column.
The Code list shows all available codes in the currently configured code table set in the Utilities/Configure/Code Table command.
Retrieve Coords Retrieve Co-ordinates Retrieve co-ordinates from the currently open database and place them in the Traverse File Editor.
First, select the required record and then select this command. If the co-ordinates of the AT point are present in the database, they are copied to the Traverse File Editor as fixed co-ordinates.
To select a record click on the appropriate number in the left-hand column of the spreadsheet. The entire row of the record will be highlighted.
If you inadvertently have any fixed co-ordinates against points that are to be adjusted, swipe and delete them before trying to adjust.
Set As Arc Set As Arc Toggle whether a distance is an arc or chord. To use this tool, a radius field must first be selected. If the distance is to be treated as an arc, then the radius value will be in the colour set for arcs in the Utilities/Configure/Colours/Table command.
