Edit sounding

Edit sounding point.

If editing is open together with sounding window, all changes to edited sounding observations are displayed in diagram in real time. Active observation line is displayed in diagram with red color and when diagram is pointed with mouse, nearest observation line is activated in editing.

Fields

Upper part fields display object type and three freely selectable attributes.

Pages

XYZ  Data  Sounding

X, Y, Z, A, B, T

Sounding point coordinates. A and B are projected section and side offset from the reference line. T is a point symbol direction in gons.

Sounding method

Because every sounding method have different data, this can be changed only when the observation list is empty.

Start method, Start depth

Start method and depth of the sounding. Field beside the depth can be used for start methods missing from the list.

End method

Sounding end method. Sounding method and end method together define the symbol for the point.

End depth, Z

Sounding end depth and height.

Copy XY

Copies coordinates to the clipboard as a comma separated text. By default copies only X and Y. With the Shift-key the Z is also copied. With the Ctrl-key XY-coordinate order is swapped. With the Alt-key decimal separator comes from system settings and field separator is tabulator. This format can be pasted directly to Excel columns as numeric values.

Paste XY

Pastes quote, semicolon, tabulator, space or linefeed separated coordinates from the clipboard to the coordinate fields. If the clipboard data contains decimal points, comma is also handled as a field separator. Otherwise comman is handled as a decimal separator. Paste works also directly with columns copied from Excel. With the Ctrl-key XY-coordinate order is swapped.

Move

Activates the point move mode. With the methods Mouse and Mouse XY only X- and Y-fields are activated and the point height does not change. With the method Closests point all coordinates are changed. With the Shift-key method can be changed when activating the move mode. New point location is pointed normally with the mouse. With the method Mouse and the Shift-key the point can be dragged. Coordinate values can also be changed manually.

Rotate

Activates the point symbol direction change. New direction is pointed with the mouse according the normal method rules.

Code

Activates data copying from another object. Method Nearest point copies data from the nearest point and method Mouse from the nearest line. By default only the object code is copied. With the Shift-key all attributes are copied.

Drawing

Opens drawing data editing. Number of defined drawing data items is displayed in parenthesis after button label. With the Shift-key clears drawing data.

New

Creates new sounding point. With the Shift-key makes copy of the active sounding point.

Remove

Removes sounding point. With the Alt-key starts continuous remove mode. Objects pointed with the Alt-key are immediately removed.

File

The file element where the object belongs.

Mode, X

Displays current edit mode (move, rotate, add, etc.). The X button quits the edit mode and returns to the normal state. If no mode is active, it releases the current object.

Following macros can be used to access sounding point data:
