Elevations can be entered directly for a point in either the Points Manager or the Traverse View if the elevation column is turned on.
Protecting Elevations
When you enter an elevation in the Traverse View, TPC automatically protects the elevation of the point. This feature allows you to run levels through points that you located with a total station that computes an elevation. In this case, the elevation you enter takes precedence over any elevation computed from the slope distance and vertical angle.
Editing Multiple Elevations at One Time
In both the Points Manager and the Traverse View, you can select (highlight) any number of points, then enter the elevation for one of them. TPC enters that elevation for each selected point.
In the Points Manager, you might want to sort the elevations by left-clicking the Elevation column, identify the points with elevations you want to change, then select them and enter the one elevation to update all of them.
Picking Elevations from a Drawing
In any COGO dialog with an elevation followed by a [>] pick button, you can select the [>] pick button, then select any object in the current drawing. TPC will get the elevation from that object an place it in the dialog.
Entering Stadia
You can enter Stadia in a traverse and TPC will compute the position of that foresight or sideshot along with it's elevation using the stadia for horizontal and vertical distance.
