Call

This feature allows you to place the bearings, distances, etc. in a table instead of along the lines and curves in the drawing. This is especially useful when space along the lines or curves is limited. When you use a call table only the course labels are placed along the line or curve to identify it in the table.

When you choose the Table > Call item from the menu the Call Table Settings dialog appears. As with the coordinate table, this dialog box allows you to enter: the layer, text size and line spacing for the call table.

Drawing Settings

Layer: CG_Template
Text size: 0.100
Line Spacing: 0.075
Use Foot symbol: Checked
This setting will place a Foot symbol < " > if desired.

Course labels

First course label: The course labels will be based on the First course label setting in the Call Table Settings dialog box. The course label will then be determined by incrementing the last character in the previous course label starting with the first course label.
For example: line1 increments to line2, line3, etc. whereas line_a increments to line_b, line_c, or as in the example above L1, L2 L3, etc.

Automatically increment course label: Check or Uncheck box
This setting will automate the process with selecting point sequence

After configuring the settings in the Call Table Settings dialog:
Ok Button : select OK

Prompts

You will be prompted at the command line to enter the point sequence.
Enter the point sequence by typing point IDs or by selecting C&G points and/or lines on the screen.

Enter point sequence: [cLockwise_curve/ccW_curve/Point_group/Reset/turn_Snap_on]

The Reset button: The ' R' resets the last point to <None>

When you are done entering calls: press <Enter>
This will end the input process and the call table will be drawn at the cursor.

Move Call Table to desired location: Drag the table and left-click the mouse button to place table on screen. The course description will be placed in the table and on the line or arc in the drawing.
