To Copy Points from One Point Group to Another by Dragging Points

Include drawing points from one point group into another point group using the Prospector tree drag-and-drop capability.

Important: When you drag one or more points from the source point group to the destination point group, all points in the source group are copied into the destination group, not just the selected points.
  1. Ensure that the destination point group is visible in the Prospector tree.
  2. Ensure that the source point group you want to drag into the destination point group is displayed in the Prospector list view.
  3. In the list view, select one or more points. Hold down the left mouse button, and drag the mouse to the destination point group name in the Prospector tree. When the cursor display changes to , release the mouse button to drop the points into the point group at the tip of the cursor arrow.
  4. Right click the destination point group and click Update to update the point group.

    All of the points in the source point group are added to the destination point group’s point list.

    The Include tab of the point group’s Point Group Properties dialog box is modified to include the point number of the points.
