Today while surveying i tried a new function, where i keyed in a new line between 2 points I had in my TSC3 controller, it created that line, and i staked that line out. I now am trying to export that line from Trimble Business Center, is there anyway to do that?

@va-ls-2867 I am not seeing it on my screen. it displays on my map in the controller but I cannot seem to make it appear in TBC. Is there a certain thing I have to do in TBC or my controller to make it display?

JXL/JOB files are raw data files, not linework/geometry files, so lines created using the Key In routines are not exported with the JXL/JOB file format. Linework resides in the Map portion of the job, which is made up of any imported geometries like DXFs, RXLs, keyed in lines, etc.

As Mr. Gordon mentioned, the easiest way to get the linework is to export it to DXF from the controller, then import that DXF into TBC. Or simply draw a line using the CAD commands within TBC...

Of course you'll need to add it in your JOB file in TA as an "active map". Click on your file name a second time, which puts a box around the check mark, to make the lines in that map selectable for stake out.
