5 improvements in Leica Captivate v3.0 that make switching between projects more efficient

As a busy surveyor or site engineer, you may have several survey or construction projects to work on in parallel and possibly be moving between them daily. This means not only moving your instrument to a new location, but also switching the measure job, setup data, design data, coordinate system, etc. withinLeica Captivate。

当使用Captivate（我们希望您是）时，将工作工作（将测量数据存储的工作）切换为由家庭面板中的简单滑动完成。但是，切换控制数据（用于设置仪器的数据）和设计数据（要放置的数据）并非如此迅速地完成。

新的Caintivate v3.0将于12月1日发布。它将带来五个重大改进，这将使您的项目之间的切换更加有效。让我们看一下我们在这个新版本中解决的问题以及所做的更改。

当我切换项目时，为什么我的设计和控制数据不能随着工作而切换？

在Captivate中，用户选择要将测量数据存储到家庭面板工作旋转木马的作业。在以前的Captivate版本中，在选择设计数据面板中选择了包含总站设置的数据的作业，并且对于要使用的任何对齐或DTM数据也是如此。

如果切换项目,不同的工作需要selected in the home panel, as well as a different set of control data, design data, DTM and/or alignment jobs. This could become quite tedious when done often and it could lead to errors if switching one of the jobs is forgotten and wrong data is being used.

在迷人中选择控制工作

With the new version of Captivate, control data, design data, DTM and alignment jobs can all be linked to the job selected in the home panel. This means that every time the user goes to work on a different project, one swipe to select the job in the home panel will activate the linked design, control and alignment data automatically in the background. This saves time when switching projects and it prevents possible errors as the correct data is automatically used.

My control points are spread over several jobs, is there a way to use them without constantly switching control jobs?

While in previous Captivate versions only one job containing points and lines could be selected in the design data panel. The new version does not limit how many control data jobs are linked to the working job selected in the home panel. This means the user can select several jobs containing control data and several jobs containing design data and link them all to the same working job.

所有这些链接的作业和工作作业的数据合并在所谓的数据集中，该数据集可根据需要在不同的应用中使用。

For example, in the Measure app 3D viewer, all data from the linked jobs are greyed so they can be seen but can also be differentiated from the measured data.

In the Setup app, only the data from the linked jobs is shown as they contain the control data used for the setup.

Points from several jobs combined in the dataset in Captivate v3.0

If all data is combined in a dataset, can I use COGO methods with points from different jobs?

是的。如前所述，链接作业的内容在数据集中合并。COGO应用程序访问数据集，因此，使用新的Caintivate版本，可以从几个作业的控制点和工作工作中包含的点之间完成COGO计算。

如果我的所有控件数据都在一个数据集中组合在一起，我该如何轻松找到我的观点？

This is a very good question, because when linking lots of control and design data to the working job, the dataset can contain a lot of points and lines.

在Captivate v3.0中，每个工作工作的作业属性显示了所有链接作业的概述，并允许访问数据集页面，该页面显示了这些链接的作业中包含的所有点和行的摘要。

The user now has the option to make linked jobs "visible" or "invisible", meaning points and lines from that linked job are shown or hidden in the dataset. This allows keeping all related jobs linked to the working job for later use but temporarily hiding the content for a better overview.

编辑Caintivate v3.0中的工作可见性

此外，可以将几个过滤器选项应用于数据集中的点。一个新的过滤器选项允许定义多个点范围，该范围为用户提供了显示和隐藏点的所有自由。

The point filters are then taken over into the apps so that a point range filter could be used, for example, to define a stakeout list for the day. This allows the user to concentrate on the task at hand, only seeing the necessary information, while all relevant data is still connected to the current working job.

Is there a way to clean up my job carousel to find jobs easier?

Yes, there is. With the new concept of linked jobs, we have introduced a job management panel that can be accessed via the F6 button from the home panel. This job management shows all jobs available on the instrument and allows defining which of the jobs are visible in the job carousel in the home panel. So, if you want it really clean, you can hide all but your current working job from the home panel.

但是我对迷人的工作方式感到满意。为什么我现在需要更改工作流？

你不。旧的工作方式与工作是性病ll available in Captivate v3.0 and you can continue working as before after an upgrade. If you never link any control or design jobs to your working job, you will hardly notice the new feature being there.

How can I get the new release?

The new Captivate v3.0 field software will be available onLeica Myworld要在2017年12月1日之后下载。对于安装，客户服务包（CCP）许可证有效，直到至少需要2017年12月1日为止。如果您有任何特定的疑问或愿望，请与您的当地联系Leica Geosystemsrepresentative。
