3.2.4.2 Copying and Pasting Nodes
In order to copy a node, a node must first be selected. This
can be done directly from a node table, or most commonly on
a feature level.
Copying

Feature Management.
2. Select a node either graphically or from the 2
Node
Management table.
3. Select menu and choose the 2
Node submenu
4. Select the 5
Clipboard submenu.
5. Select Copy to.
Tip: Before you can paste, you must deselect the copied
feature.
Pasting
1. Select the desired feature either graphically or from
Feature Management.
2. Select a node adjacent to the point you wish to insert either
graphically or from the 2
Node Management table.
3. Select menu and choose the 2
Node submenu.

3.2.4.3 Inserting, Appending, and Prepending in Existing
Lines and Areas
Previously collected lines and areas can be amended or
continued by Inserting, Appending, or Prepending with noded
or streamed data.
One of the complexities of adding new data is knowing the
order in which a feature was collected. This can be done by
using the Previous and Next commands in the Node submenu
to discern the direction of collection.
Inserting into a Feature (Node Mode)
1. Select the desired feature to be appended, either
graphically or from Feature Management.
2. Select a node adjacent to the point you wish to insert either
graphically or from the 2
Node Management table.
3. Select Menu and choose the
2 Node submenu.
4. Select 6
Insert New.
5. Select Before or 2
After.
Tip: Because the nature of collection is to continue in the
same direction as the collected feature, it is advised to
insert After an existing node for multiple nodes or
streaming!
