how do I get inroads ss4 to read an xin file when field survey data is loaded through the inroads explorer window?
Hi Kenneth,
Within the native InRoads Explorer Window, select the Preferences tab from the Workspace Bar. Right-click on the (XIN) preference path, select Open and then navigate to your desired XIN. Once that XIN is open, you should see those preference applied to the survey data automatically. You can also select File and Open to load your XIN.
Thanks,
Sanders

Don't forget that under Project Defaults you can specify a specific XIN file to load.
Additionally, if you use a MicroStation Configuration Variable in there, you can even have project.pcf or user.ucf files define different XIN file for different clients or projects.
Or use an RWK file.

Hi Sanders,
Using the same xin and data files that I had sent to you, my InRoads still
does not see the xin file. When I try to view the file through "Named
Symbology Manager" or "Style Manager", nothing shows. I have set through
InRoads Explorer Window and through preferences selected the correct file.
Even when I load the xin through Project Explorer and link the Feature
Definition the xin still is not being seen.
Again thank you for your support with this.
Ken
