I've been wanting to go to the field, with strictly line work, and stake line work, with NO point numbers. There is some stuff that allows that, but I have not figured it out yet.
Enter a deed in ACAD, or Carlson.
Import that polyline to the LS.
Complete liberty to rotate and translate, with ease, that polyline. Corner missing? No problem! rotate and translate the polyline, so that it does a "Best fit" on the points (Field shot points) that are nearest, and then stake the node, Saving the point set as a point number. It could even be done, without a worksheet.
I am like the chicken in far side cartoons, dreaming of flying like a buzzard! I think at least some, or most of the ability is there, but to figure it out, and make it very simple... ahhh that's the key!
