It sometimes splits the grid into 4 rectangles. Usually happens with large grids.<br />Solution seems to be open new View of map.<br />Is this a known bug?<br />Regards Fredfreddxxyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06918082123997583368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157785897936147656.post-43117497476402909092013-03-07T15:08:30.291+00:002013-03-07T15:08:30.291+00:00The help should be accessible from the help menu. ...The help should be accessible from the help menu. Does it not load correctly? What version of windows are you using? The help file is installed in the same place as the software, with a file extension of chm. If loading that from the directory doesn't work, then the problem is your OS. If you can, then it is me doing something wrong.David Staveleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11829147049242240411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157785897936147656.post-28095231859516757372013-03-07T14:59:10.103+00:002013-03-07T14:59:10.103+00:00Thank you very much for your answer, this was inde...Thank you very much for your answer, this was indeed the problem.

My previous reply, and the 0,0 stuff applies only to the XYZ import. Are you talking about importing direct from the machine? With that, decide which end of your survey area, usually north, is going to be towards the top of your image. You then work out in which corner of the grid you would have started in relation to that, so for instance, if north is to the top of the image and you started in the north-east corner of each grid, then you would select the top-right corner, south-west corner would be bottom-left, etc. You can decide whichever corner you want. The effect would be the grid layout in the map would be different, and the final image would be rotated accordingly.David Staveleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11829147049242240411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157785897936147656.post-41241382624065725772013-01-31T19:22:04.294+00:002013-01-31T19:22:04.294+00:00That's great, thanks for the quick reply David...That's great, thanks for the quick reply David. Yes, we haven't had any issues importing the RM85 data using Snuffler with the RM15 option.<br /><br />So what you are saying is that I should always use the top right option when using Snuffler? The reason I ask is because I have some data which I did this with and it came out the wrong way, when I used bottom right it was okay.<br /><br />How does the import related to say a grid surveyed using the Bartington, because I can in theory survey it starting at any corner, as long as I go clockwise - and does Snuffler care about the start direction I enter into the Grad at configuration?<br /><br />Thanks again, Matt.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11799431197495331525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157785897936147656.post-63069322132673135142013-01-28T15:18:02.779+00:002013-01-28T15:18:02.779+00:00Matt, I'm glad to hear the software is useful....Matt, I'm glad to hear the software is useful. You are the first person to say they are using it with the new RM85. Do you just use the RM15 option for import, without any issues?<br /><br />As for the 0,0 and top-left or bottom-left. It's all linked to mathematicians. They tend to think like a graph, where the x and y axis are in the bottom left corner and increase in value to the top and right, whereas a lot of people, me included, think of position x = 0, y = 0 in the top-left corner of the image, increasing in value to the bottom and right. The option to choose between these in the XYZ import will allow you to process data output from software that may differ to Snuffler in it's view of where 0,0 should be, so while Snuffler thinks 0,0 is in the top-left corner, Geoplot thinks it is in the bottom-left. If you didn't tell it the right way on import, your imported data could be upside down. I hope that makes sense.David Staveleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11829147049242240411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157785897936147656.post-7496117785039436522013-01-28T14:57:36.467+00:002013-01-28T14:57:36.467+00:00Hi David - this is great, many thanks for the cont...Hi David - this is great, many thanks for the continued support of this vital piece of software. I use it regularly for creating data from our RM85 and 601-2 machines. I wondered if you might consider doing a blog post on the mechanics of importing into Snuffler, the meaning of the 0,0 origin, the differences between 'top left' and 'bottom left' imports and the relation of the Snuffler grid orientation to the survey orientation. Although I am a regular user, I still don't think I fully understand the import process and sometimes doubt my output until I see a feature of which I know the orientation of. Thanks again, Matt.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11799431197495331525noreply@blogger.com
