3.2Selecting a Feature

In order to view or manipulate feature data, a feature must first be selected. Selection can be performed from a table of features via Feature Management, or graphically from a map.

3.2.1Feature Management

Tabular selection of a feature is done from the Feature Management menu. Once in Feature Management, by default features will be listed alphabetically; point, line and area templates will group like features and present them in a numerical order. However, by choosing Menu and Sort the table can be sorted by Name, Code, Feature Type and by Ascending or Descending order.

To view the attributes of a table selection, press menu and choose 3 Attribution, or simply press Enter.

To select the feature, press Menu and choose 2 Select from the context menu.

Other options of a selected feature include feature manipulation (e.g. delete and clipboard functions) and the ability to flag a selected feature as a Waypoint.

Tip: Linear Perimeter and Polygon area can be calculated in the Attribution screen if a coordinate system has been selected.
