Description
rcd is used for digitizing both in 2D and 3D. It will read data by cursor-clicks on the left mouse button. The zoom (right) and pan (middle) mouse buttons can be used while digitizing.
When digitizing is ended, the result will be a dataset, usually present both in workspace ^rcd and as the active dataset. Check the Keyboard Shortcuts in the User Guide to learn what keys can be used for digitizing.
