Scale point marker with two code parameters.

[Bennos1]

Hi,

I don't have any lisp and vba writing knowledge. And have thrown this question into the general discussion group with no result, and was hoping someone here may have a answer to make it work?
When importing points from a csv file I would like to scale the trees so the canopy and trunk are the correct sizes. At present using description keys I can scale one parameter on import, not two. An example of my tree code looks like this Tree 0.5 8 where 0.5 is the trunk and 8 is the canopy size ( i work in metric).


Thanks,

Ben

Without an extra app (or 3rd party stuff like
Stringer Survey) the only way to do this is to take 2 shots at the tree and code
them differently: we used to use:

TT 0.5  Trunk Only, then

TS 8    for spread only,
leaving 

TR 0.5 for generic trees where the canopy size
didn't matter.

And this works fine until you are doing a survey of
the Botanical Gardens, locating 4232 trees with 3 dimensions.

How does Stringer do it?
