When you use a topology query, you can store the retrieved information in a temporary topology. The topology name is preceded by an asterisk (*). To save back the temporary topology to the queried drawings, first convert the temporary topology to a permanent topology.
To convert a temporary topology to a permanent topology
- In Map Explorer, under Current Drawing, right-click the temporary topology you want to convert
. A temporary topology has a name preceded by an asterisk (*).
- In the Rename Topology dialog box, enter a new name for the topology.
To create a permanent topology, do not start the topology name with an asterisk (*). Also note that topology names can contain letters, numbers, and the underscore, hyphen, and dollar characters. Names cannot include spaces.
- Optionally, enter a new description for the topology.
- Click OK to rename the topology, making it a permanent topology.
