Setting 4 Corners of Plans
(Optional)
1. Click the 4 Pts button on the left menu
to digitize the 4 corners of the plans.

2. Setting the 4 corners is optional and does not have to be
done. The 4 corners has 2 functions. The first is to size the
plans on the screen. If you are digitizing some small plans on a
big digitizer, by digitizing the 4 corners, the software will
zoom the on screen digitizing window to be the size of the plans
instead of the digitizer.
3. The second purpose is to add the ability to edit plans after
they have been removed from the digitizer, by realigning the
plans on the digitizer. If the 4 corners have been initially
digitized and the plans saved to a file, the plans can be
removed from the digitizer, replaced on the digitizer at a later
date, the data file loaded and the program will prompt if the
file is to be realigned. The user then redigitizes the 4 corners
which realigns the plans. The plans do not have to be placed on
the same spot (they even can be rotated 90 degrees).
5. You must make on the plans where the 4 corners are that have
been digitized OR use the 4 corners of the piece of paper.
6. After clicking the 4 Pts button the program will prompt for
each corner to be digitized:

7. Digitize the corners in the order requested on the screen -
upper left, lower left, lower right, and upper right. The
digitizing window will display the points on the screen with
lines clicking the points. |
