Topic: Point Group Manager - Killing Me Here

[rugaroo]

Ok..I am trying to bring in my surveyor's data file and import the points so that I can build my TIN and everything along those lines. However, when I bring in the points, the will display under whatever point group I want, but I am unable to select any of them in the right pane of the point manager. At first, I said no big deal, just insert all the points into the dwg, and it will be fine. WRONG!!! I went through the process of inserting them, but they are not there, well they are, but aren't. I can build a sset of them, but I can't see them or edit or anything. I made sure that my points are set to relative 5%, with a real text style and size. I have also tried re-importing from scratch, but I still can't find and edit them as needed...What can I do? I need to get my topo done within the next hour or so...someone please help me.

[Mark]

can you upload the point file from the surveyor?

just for grins, is the layer you inserted them on frozen?

[rugaroo]

Here are the points...

No, all layers are thawed and turned on.

[Mark]

are you talking about the "right side" as in this:

[rugaroo]

yeah...see how you had that one point selected...for one, i cant do that.

[Mark]

http://www.theswamp.org/swamp.files/mark/Groups.zip

try putting these in your cogo folder under your project folder, please backup the existing ones first!

[Mark]

Also have you looked at Points -> Point Management ->Point Database Setup? Maybe you have it the database closed.

[Mark]

Here's a 2000 dwg with you points inserted.

http://www.theswamp.org/swamp.files/mark/ACAD-for-rug.dwg

[rugaroo]

well the group field showed up fine, but when I imported the points, they still did not show up, nor could i edit them still


--edit--
Point group unlocked ~ multi user

[rugaroo]

they are fine from your dwg...wonder what I did

[Mark]

How about your point label, is it set to this?

[rugaroo]

Well the dwg and other files worked fine to get the topo in. and yes my labels are exactly like yours...this is really strange.

[Mark]

so you can do your job right ?

[rugaroo]

yep...after you posted those file i went and cranked out my topo real quick and got it done. I appreciate your help mark. I owe you yet another one...might as well just send me the tab

[Mark]

next time I'm in Vegas I'll let you buy the first 3 rounds.
