NEW CODE TABLE

WHY?

• Standardization across ODOT• Symbols that are very close to MicroStation• Standard cad output settings • Symbols with names

ODOT_05.CTB

• Name reflects this release, not Liscad version• New files

– ODOT_05.CTB– ODOT_05.LUT– ODOT_05.CPF– ODOT_05.LLU

ODOT_05.CTB

• Files that belong in the SEE folder– ODOT_05.CTB– ODOT_05.LUT– ODOT_05.CPF

• Files that belong in the Liscad folder– ODOT_05.LLU

TRANSITION

• Implement at beginning of new projects

• New code cards and files will be posted on our web site next week

• Give us feed back by Wednesday

Code Table

• Controls– Symbol size and shape– Symbol color– Elevation-yes or no– Contourable-yes or no, Breakline-yes or no– Group– Rounding (.000)– Height, width and direction

Look up table

• Codes are alpha names• We code numeric names in the field• The lookup table equates numeric names to

alpha names

Code Table Changes

• Contact Geometronics Unit– All changes shall be made by Geometronics– Suggested changes are welcome– Changes will be reviewed – Changes will be made if approved– When changes are made

Replace Cell

• RCL.MA:– Replaces Liscad symbols w/MicroStation

Cells– Needs cell library with MicroStation cells– Needs lookup text file

• Equates symbols with cells

– Reduces time in drafting base map

Next project

• Develop standards for all existing features• Develop complete PLMET menu for existing

features• Integrate Liscad with new MicroStation• Integrate Liscad with InRoads Version 8
