- Open hyperlink - MDT25This command is used to open a hyperlink linked to a point. The program continually requests selection of a point, and then if the point…
- Edit - MDT25This option allows one to change surveying point attributes (ordinal number, code and level), and X, Y and Z coordinates. Other related…
- Move - MDT25This command allows one to change a surveying point's position of point (X and Y coordinates). The elevation should be changed with the…
- Delete - MDT25This option allows you to delete the drawing points you wish. If there is an active surface, the vertex corresponding to the surface is…
- Change scale - MDT25As is known, objects are drawn in their real dimensions in CAD, that is to say at a scale of 1:1. However, text sizes must correspond with…
- Change elevation - MDT25This command allows one to change the elevation of a set of points. After selecting the points desired, one can either set an Absolute…
- Change level - MDT25Simultaneously changes the level of a point selection. Firstly, the program requests one to select a set of points. The level to which one…
- Change codes - MDT25This command allows one to change the codes of a group of points at the same time. In order to do so, the points are selected first and…
- Change layer - MDT25Initially, the program draws all the surveying points on the same layer. A group of points can be selected with this command. They can…
- Change format - MDT25This command allows one to the change the appearance (format) of a drawing's points. There are three ways of doing so: Overall. Globally…
- Change uncertainties - MDT25This command enables us to edit or delete the uncertainties associated with the points in a drawing. A window appears with the total…
- Rotate points - MDT25If this command is selected, the orientation of the coordinates system of the selected points' coordinate system can be changed. After…
- Rotate points 3D - MDT25This command is similar to the previous command except that the rotation is conducted in 3D. The following window will appear on executing…
- Move points - MDT25This command enables one to move a scatter plot or a specific selection of its points to a specific position. In order to do so, the base…
- Renumber points - MDT25This command allows one to modify totally or partially the numeric order of the points represented in the drawing. The program displays a…
- Axle swapping - MDT25This command enables us to change the coordinates of the points or polylines selected. This is particularly useful for altering projects…
- Filter points - MDT25This utility allows one to delete points, or change layer of points, that are close to each other. The program requests the Minimum…
- Move attributes - MDT25This command allows one to move an attribute from a point to any other position. It is very useful when text height and number texts get…
- Rotate attributes - MDT25This command works in a similar way to the command explained in Move Attributes. Its functionality is based on aesthetic presentation…
- Restore attributes - MDT25Executing this command places point attributes in their original location, thereby deleting any modifications made using the Move…
- Delete extra attributes - MDT25This command is used to delete the additional attributes associated with the points (observation data, hyperlinks, etc.). First, whether…
