Managing and understanding settings

Trimble Terra Office maintains a few settings that apply to all projects. To access these settings, click Terra Office Settings on the toolbar.

  • Pro project auto-save. Controls whether or not the add-in will automatically save the ArcGIS Pro project file after creating new projects. There are 3 choices: Ask every time, Save automatically, and Will save manually. The Save automatically option is recommended. As all Terra Office project settings are stored locally within the Pro project (.aprx) file, it is important to save it.

  • GNSS logging settings. Controls the position / vertex and path logging rates in TerraFlex for all projects published from that point forward. Click the Change settings link to set the number of positions used for position / vertex averaging (real‑time only versus post‑processing) and the time or distance interval for path logging.

  • Logging level. Controls the activity log of the Terra Office add-in for ArcGIS Pro. In most cases, you can leave the setting at Only important information. You may be asked in a support case with your Trimble distributor to switch the logging to Full troubleshooting information. The default path for add-in log files is within the user profile (C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Trimble\TerraOfficeArcGISProAddin\Logs).
