Name
rcd — Read from cursor and draw
Syntax
rcd [liw] [poi] [col] [max | min | hei] [sav] [tub] [dva] [set]
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.
Tip
The digitizing functionality has a front-end in the Quick digitizing, found under Tools.
There are many alternative digitizers present in Geocap. The command edit, is one examle, other examples are the Shelf functionality for digitizing outer limits, the command Red snapper, and seismic interpretation.
Use acd - Append data from cursor to append instead of digitizing from scratch.
