Figure Prefix Database Issue?

All,

 

I am trying to work on my figure database and have run into an issue I don't understand. Curious as to weather or not it's something I am doing, or just a bug.

 

I wanted to look at every possible line that could be imported so I created a dummy point file using the Figure prefix data base and imported it into one of my blank templates and ran into to curious issues.

 

Issue 1

CP is connecting to AA

Issue 2

 

OC only connects if the point has an identifier behind the OC, for example OC01.

 

Any Ideas?

 

Here is a copy of the figure database and point file I am using. I understand you will not have my layers, but the connectivity should be the same. Let me know if you need anything else.

When I imported the file, I had the same issue with EC as you do with OC (I had the issue with OC as well). I didn't get the AA connection problem though. Can you take a screenshot of your import options?

I believe this is the dialog box you were curious about.

Do you have a survey command defined for OC? Perhaps there is a conflict?? Just a guess.

That's it! OC is a command within the default Linework Code Set "Point on Curve". Same for EC "End Curve". That's why those don't work. Either change your code or change the linework codeset.

John,

 

You nailed it. THat explains both problems. OC = on curve. CP = Connect to point.

Thnaks Brian. I either got lucky or the last week on the beach really cleared out some cobwebs. 🙂
