To Edit Control Points

Use the Control Points Editor to view and edit control point data for individual or multiple control points.

For individual control points, the Control Points Editor provides the same functionality as the Control Points properties list view in the ToolspaceSurvey tab, but it is more suited for horizontal viewing of a tabulation of this type of data. The benefit of editing control points in the Control Points Editor is that you can easily switch to the Survey tab and browse through the data and then return back to the Control Points Editor to continue with your edits.

  1. Do one of the following:
    • To view and edit control points, in Toolspace, on the Survey tab, right-click the Control Points collection and click Edit to open the Control Points Editor.
    • To view and edit a single control point, in Toolspace on the Survey tab, click the Control Points collection. In the item list view, right-click the point Properties.
  2. Modify the applicable fields as required.
    Note: When you make a change to any control point data, the entire row is displayed in bold until you save the changes to the survey database.
