Field to Finish drawing point mark on wrong layer

Postby MikeSchaff » Fri Dec 22, 2017 5:39 pm

I'm setting up Field to Finish in Carlson Survey 2018 OEM.

In my Field Code Definition I have assigned a Main Layer and a Distinct Point Layer. I have assigned a symbol and second symbol on the Symbols tab and I assigned the second symbol to a layer. When I run F2F, everything goes to the correct layers, except the point mark. The mark gets placed on a new layer that I didn't create or assign.

For example.

Code = CBP
Main Layer = CBP
Distinct Point Layer = CBP
2nd Symbol Point Layer = CBP

When I run F2F, the 2nd symbol is placed on CBP, but the 1st symbol is placed on CBPMARK.

I don't understand why this is happening. How can I get both symbols onto the same layer?

I don't use F2F, but there is a new build for Carlson 2018 OEM that is not on their website yet. Contact customer support. It appears to be a lot of bugs in this release.

I don't know if you got an answer to this. If not Try this.

Go to the Field to Finish Dialog, and click "Code Table Settings". Look to see if there is Suffix assigned(I highlighted it in (Capture1 attached). This was a feature they added a while back that bit me too.

If it still happens, you'll need to edit the problem code. In the Edit Field Code dialog there is a line "Separate Attribute Layers" click the set button shown in (Capture2) and correct the 2 line shown in (Capture3)

hope this does it.

May I ask a silly question? Why is this an issue? Are you setting up different layers for specific shot types? Doesn't that create a gazillion layers that you have to dig thru and remember what you called what? I've seen people do this and I really don't understand this concept. Can you enlighten me a little bit?
