Please assist with importing coordinates x,y and their respective labels or text into Open Cities Map.
In the old Bentley Map we used pltpnt.ma to place text at specific coordinates; O Cities does not recognize this mdl.
I have browsed forums, but can’t find help with it.
How do i achieve this in OpenCities map..
OpenCities Map can also import the coordinates using its Import CSV/VRT functionality. It's a two-step process to replace the mdl functionality, 1. Import the points, 2, Label the points. See these articles for more information:
A third step can be used to convert the dynamic Label to static Annotation in the DGN File. See the Labeling and Annotation chapter in the Map Help document and the following article for more details.
And, is this the same tool as your pltpnt.ma command?

if so It appears to be rewritten for the CONNECT platform & there is a Download link near the top.
Thank you Dan, I will look into these and give feedback.
It seems a simple function has been made into a tedious process, quite far from how easy and intuitive this is in other application such as AutoCAD Map 3D.
