I had this come up yesterday and couldn't figure out how to do it. I had an existing job with 27 points from the first day and intended on importing design points 28-33 but forgot to before I left the office. Before I realized I hadn't imported I'd started a new base session on point 28 and had collected a few additional points as well. My text file actually contained points 1-33, but all I wanted to import was 28-33 and for the life of me I couldn't find where to only select "part" of a text file. It doesn't hurt to import all but it creates a duplicate "design" point copying my original survey points 7 [1], 8 [1], etc and kind of makes a mess of the points.
I ended up just quickly starting a new job, importing all, then exporting the 6 I needed but this is where I most likely just should've imported all in page 1. I'm hard headed and don't even use the page feature like I should, but IS there a way to select only a portion of a text file to import?
Also, when I went to import the new six point file I created, I'd already used those points and selected "rename". I would've liked to have selected which point it began renaming but it automatically renamed them 28[1], 29[1], etc. I then had to manually go into points and renumber them what I wanted. When we stake out these we type in the number and I'm not sure how I'd do that with those type of numbers.
Long story short, I made this WAY more difficult than I'm sure it was, but it was really cold and I was down in the bottom of a 220' deep ravine and wasn't thinking too clearly
By the way, the Javad preformed amazing in this ravine, some of the most incredible collections we've done yet with it. As I said, we were over 200' below our base going down the thread of a drain collecting breaks. 75% of the shots literally didn't even collect any more than the one bucket. Just plowed right through phase one, onto phase two and then validated with mostly three to five engines!
