The page is intended for setting import of DXF file components – layers, spatial categories and blocks in layers.
The pane displays a list of layers of DXF file being imported. A checkbox to the left of the layer name is a sign of enabling import of features of the corresponding layer.
If export is disabled for the whole layer, features will not be imported not depending on the sign of enabling or disabling import for a spatial category or for a block.
Context menu of the pane of components contains two items Import and Do Not Import and permits indicating either to load features of selected layer of imported DXF file or not.
The pane contains a list of spatial categories of features and blocks of the layer selected in the pane of components. If the box Explode blocks is checked, names of blocks are not present in the list.
The caption of the pane contains column names:
Spatial category, block | Spatial category: “Point”, “Line”, “Area” and “Text” or a name of the block in the layer of DFX file selected in the pane of components. A checkbox to the left of the category (block) name is a sign enabling import of features of the corresponding category (block); |
Layer | A name of the map layer and a name of the feature type in the layer to which features of the corresponding spatial category (block) of DXF file layer will be imported. If the sign of enabling import is set for the type (block) in DXF file, a layer and feature type of the map should be necessarily specified for it. |
Context menu of the pane of subcomponents permits specifying processing method of the feature type selected in the pane.
Import | Allow the user to indicate if features of selected spatial category (or categories) of DXF layer should be loaded to ObjectLand map or not. The same action can be performed switching the checkbox located to the left of the name of category. |
Change | A dialog box “Setting import of category/block” is opened. It serves for changing import parameters (layer in ObjectLand map and feature type in layer) for selected category (block) of DXF file. |
Reset | Resets all settings made for a category (block). |
Cancel | Cancels performing the procedure. |
<Back | Cancels actions at the current step and returns to the previous step. |
Next> | Fixes actions performed at the current step and proceeds to next step of the procedure. |
