In my new CS 2011, I can't find the option for undefined codes. Did they eliminate that?
It seems to be dumping a lot of codes into one layer for some reason.
Thanks,
Forrest
See if the following helps...
"Officially" (from the Help/Documentation that discusses the option for Pause on Undefined Codes):
>Use the default settings for this point: This option draws a point in the "MISC" layer with no linework. To set your own default, define a code called "SC_DFLT".
>
>Use default settings for all undefined codes: This option will draw all undefined codes in the "MISC" layer by default or a user specified layer as defined in the "SC_DFLT" code. A good way to check the data file for unmatched descriptions is to use the Print Table command and choose the Data Points and Distinct Code options. This command will print the different codes in the data file and identify any undefined codes.
I don't know where I picked this up but if you define a Field Code called Default, it will do the same thing as "SC_DFLT" mentioned above. I like to associate a "?" symbol for my Default, give it a larger symbol size than the rest and perhaps even a splash of Red for good measure.
