TPC Legend

Like Legends…

The legend is just one example of the Smart Drawing Objects™ you’ll find in TPC Desktop.

  • The Automatic Point Symbols option adds any used symbols to the legend – automatically. Remove a symbol from the drawing and TPC Desktop removes it from the legend.
  • Edit the text for any legend item. Change ‘FOUND 5/8″ REBAR’ to ‘FOUND 5/8″ REBAR AS NOTED”.
  • Right click the legend and add a new legend item like ‘[ ] RECORD DATA CSF 29427’. It’s so easy.
  •  Rearrange the items within the legend.
  •  Right click any line, text, symbol or drawing object and add it to the legend.

You’ll find other Smart Drawing Objects™ like tables that let you add a record data column, scale bars that update with the drawing scale, title blocks that bring in the scale, file name and date and more.
