Where: UtilityScout, on the phone, the map.
When you finish: you know which of the two modes to use, joining poles into a span or drawing a bent line, and how each one is saved.
You want | Mode | Finished with |
To join two existing objects, usually poles, into a span | Connect Objects (also called Add Connection) | Confirm Connection |
A free path with several bends | Your organization's sketch line type | Finish Polyline |
Connect objects into a span
Select the starting object.
Choose Connect Objects or Add Connection.
Follow Select an object to connect to and tap the other object.
If your organization has more than one span type, pick it.
Tap Confirm Connection. The line is not saved until you do. Cancel leaves without saving.
If you need something at the middle, use Add Midspan when it is offered. Measuring it is a separate step: Measure a midspan (High Accuracy).
Draw a sketch line
Open the add type menu and choose your organization's sketch line type.
Add points with Add Vertex, or Add Vertex at GPS for a point at your current position.
Keep adding until the line follows the path you need.
Tap Finish Polyline to save. Cancel abandons it.
If drawing a line says no line template is set up, that is a setup gap rather than a fault: "No line template configured" when I draw a line.
