Hi ,I have a query regarding the text rotation setting in the named symbology manger.
I have created a survey feature style in the native style manager. From this i then create a symbology for text, this is done under "plan text" in symbology manager with an absolute angle of say 45 Degrees.
The issue I have is the resulting text is not rotated by the specified value ie. 45 Degrees.
Looking into the .xin file in notepad I see the rotatation value is stored in Radians (0.7) However when it is read back and the rotatation value is applied it treats the value as being in degrees ie. it rotates the text by 0.7 Degrees and not by 45!.
I have units set to DD.MMSS in design file settings and under Survey Options.
would anyone have any idea what setting I may have missed? or experienced this issue before?
Thanks in advance.
I am using
Powersurvey v8I SS4
08.11.09.904
I cannot reproduce. Using the attach xin do get the same results?
InRoads Training.xin

Hi Marcus,
Thanks for the response. Using the InRoads Training.xin I still have the same problem. This text rotation issue occurs when using the Openroads method to import survey data, from the survey tab->Fieldbook->Load File and then "link survey definitions" in the Civil Tab.
However please note that if I import data under File->Import->PowerSurvey->Survey Data the text rotates as expected. I assume this is the older Inroads method to import data into powersurvey? as I dont seem to be able to use element templates or edit survey chains when data is imported this way.
I have attached a screen shot of the rotation applied when 45Degrees is what has been specified in the text rotation dialog. I have used the '$(ELEVATION) variable label in "Custom Operations" to generate the text.
If you have any further insight into this issue it would be appreciated.
Thanks
If you'd like to upload the files I can take a closer look.
Thanks Marcus,
