DTM Import - DTM from Ispol:

Allows you to import a TIN file from the Ispol format, commonly used in Spain.

Preferences (SETT):

This allows the user to turn on/off the pull-down MAP menus. The graphic screen style of normal or reverse (solid dark)

background is set here.

Command Aliases (AL):

Brings up a list of commands in the MAP mode for which the user can substitute an alias. If you would prefer to type A

for Area rather than AR, you can substitute “A” as an alias for AR. Three commands will not accept substitutes:

Inverse, Traverse and Sideshot (I, T and S). In addition to commands, you can toggle over to the “Linework special

code” option, and substitute aliases codes for the default special codes such as PC, PT and END (used to control

linework using feature codes). As an example, you could choose the “X” or “..” to End a line, or use “CS” for curve

start instead of PC. A sampling of commands is shown below:
