Hi guys

The survey processing software I use (LSS) generates a feature code library .fxl file which I put on my Trimble TSC3 controller. Thing is I'd like to tweak some of the input options. For example in the code below I might want to change EntryMethod="Required" to EntryMethod="Optional" which would mean I'm not forced to enter a value for spread.

<IntegerAttribute Name="Spread" Description="Spread" EntryMethod="Required" DefaultValue="0" MinimumValue="0" MaximumValue="100" />

Does anyone know where I can find out what the coding rules are for this xml file. I need to know what the various input options available are and what different attribute options are available.

Kind regards, Andrew

The FXL is an XML file - just open it up in any good editor (I use Notepad++, which is free), find the attribute in question, and change it. See the example below.?ÿ

Valid options for Entry Method are "Optional", "Required", and "Office Use Only"

Thanks Lee

I managed to download the TBC feature editor for free in the end. I can edit my .fxl files in that.
