Protecting Elevations Independent of X/Y
In TPC you can protect everything about a point, including its label, description and coordinates, its coordinates X/Y/Z or just elevation.
When you enter an elevation for an existing point, TPC automatically protects just its elevation.
Once a point's elevation is protected, operations that would normally update it, aren't allowed to change it.
