To switch between iFeatures in progress

To make your data collection more efficient, you can switch between iFeatures in progress. This is useful, for example, if you are collecting:

• a line iFeature and want to collect some point iFeatures as you travel alongside the line iFeature.
• parallel line iFeatures such as the elements of a road by zigzagging your way across the road.

To switch between iFeatures in progress:

1. Tap . If the Measurement mode bar does not show this button, touch-hold to change it to .
2. In the Topo screen, tap Select iFeature.
3. In the Add dialog, select the iFeature category and then the iFeature type. The button for the selected iFeature type is added to the iFeature action bar.

4. To add more iFeature types, touch-hold the iFeature type button in the action bar and add another iFeature type. Repeat until you are done adding iFeature types. You can have up to 6 iFeature types selected at one time.

   Additional iFeature type buttons are stacked at the right of the iFeature action bar. The active iFeature is highlighted.

5. To change the active iFeature, tap a different iFeature type button.
6. Add nodes for the active iFeature as usual, selecting the required line type and survey method as needed.
7. To switch to a different iFeature:
   • If the active iFeature is a point iFeature, tap the iFeature code button for the new iFeature and then add a node.
   • If the active iFeature is a line or polygon, tap the End line or Close polygon button. Tap the iFeature code button for the new iFeature and then add nodes.
8. To return to the previous iFeature, tap the iFeature type button for the previous iFeature. If the iFeature is a line or polygon, tap and then tap the node from which to extend the iFeature.
