Chapter 3 Working with COGO Points
102
After you create the point database, you can choose the database
“open” mode by running the Point Database Setup command. To run
this command, select the Point Database Setup command from the
Points ➤ Point Management menu.
You can open the database so that only you have write access to it, or
you can open it in multi-user mode so that multiple people can open
and write to the point database.
If other people are using the point database, then you cannot switch
from multi-user to single-user mode until the other people close the
point database. To identify which users are currently using the point
database, click the Other Users button.
Establishing Point Settings
Before you create or import any COGO points into a drawing, you
should set up the point settings. Most importantly, before creating
any points, you should establish the Point Creation Settings.
The point settings include:
■
Point creation settings
■
Point insertion settings
■
Point update settings
■
Point coordinate settings
■
Description key settings
■
Point marker settings
■
Point text settings
■
Point preferences
