Isolate Points (ISO):
This is another useful command to reduce screen clutter. If you have 500 points on the screen, you can isolate to only
those points you wish to see, by entering a distinct point range, in the form 1-10, 22, 25-30, or a certain description.
This would isolate to points 1 through 10, point 22 and points 25 to 30, and other points are “frozen”. You can also
isolate to descriptions (D for Descriptions) by entering a description such as "EG" for Existing Ground or a wildcard
description using an "*" such as "IP*" for any description beginning with IP (IP, IPF, IPS, etc.). Repeat the ISO
command and enter the full point file range (or “all”) to restore all points.
Isolate Layer (IL):
Select any polyline layer and isolate it to keep that layer. Other polyline layers are turned off (frozen), but point layers
are retained. Use the Layer command to turn layers back on as needed (On All).
Aperture (AP):
Controls the size of the rectangle area used to select points or polylines from screen. Initially, the size in pixels is 20
units for points selection and 10 units for polylines selection. You can change it as shown. The routine displays the
Aperture size dialog.
UCS (UCS) User Coordinate System Indicator:
This toggles the visibility of the UCS icon shown in the MAP screen.
Find Point (FND):
This command allows you to find a point on the MAP screen. Enter the point you want to find and a zoom height. If you
enter a point that is not on the map, the dialog will warn you and allow you to enter another point number.
