Descriptions

2D Radio Button

When checked, the program loads all available 2D templates into the template
combo box. The templates are located in the bin\ template folder.

3D Radio Button

When checked, the program loads all available 3D templates into the template
combo boxe. The templates are located in the bin\ template folder.

Create Import
Templates

When checked, the program automatically generates an import template for any
ARC-Polyline, Points-Points, and Polygon-Polygon objects exported. This template
is a reverse image of the export template used for the object. The new template
name begins with the word “Import”, followed by the name of the export template.
For example, if you use the PointToShp.tpl to export points, the import template is
named Import[PointToShp].tpl.

Merge Points

When checked, the program merges all point types, in a given file, into a single
shape point file. When unchecked, the program exports different point types, in a
given file, to their own point shape file.

Merge Arcs

When checked, the program merges all arc types, in a given file, into a single shape
arc file. When unchecked, the program merges different arc types, in a given file, to
their own arc shape file.

Merge Polygons

When checked, the program merges all polygon types, in a given file, into a single
shape polygon file. When unchecked, the program merges different polygon types,
in a given file, to their own polygon shape file.

All Files Into 1
