To Attach Object Data As You Digitize

You can attach object data to nodes and links (linear objects) as you digitize them. You can specify one object data table for nodes and another for links.

To attach object data as you digitize

  1. On the command line, enter MAPDIGISETUP. Press Enter.
  2. Under Object Type, select the object type to digitize.
  3. Select Attach Data. Click Data To Attach.
  4. In the Data to Attach dialog box, select the object data table to use. Click OK.
  5. For information on completing the other options in the Digitize Setup dialog box, see To Set Digitizing Specifications.
  6. Click OK.
  7. On the command line, enter MAPDIGITIZE to begin digitizing.

As you digitize each object, AutoCAD Map 3D prompts you to enter object data values for each field in the selected object data table.
