Exporting Traverse Shapes

You can export traverses as shapes both from the Traverses Manager and from a drawing.

Exporting Traverses

TPC writes one Polyline shape record to the Shape file for each selected traverse. The database file contains one record for each traverse in which the name of the traverse is stored.

Exporting Drawing Polylines

When you export a drawing as Polylines, TPC writes each tagged traverse (these are the traverses that show up in the drawing) as a Polyline shape, plus any other drawing objects that qualify as a Polyline shape. This differs from exporting just the traverses from the Traverses Manager.
