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

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 drawings on the screen. If you are
digitizing some small items on a big digitizer, by digitizing
the 4 corners, the software will zoom the on screen digitizing
window to be the size of the items
instead of the digitizer.
3. The second purpose is to add the ability
to edit drawngs after they have been removed from the digitizer,
by realigning the items on the digitizer. If the 4 corners have
been initially digitized and the plans saved to a file, the item 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 drawing 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. |
