Pocket Topo

Postby WVCaver2011 » May 12, 2011 10:27 am

Hey guys,

I was messing around with Pocket topo some time ago and realized that for some reason or another I cant plug my stations in with a letter. They have to be all numbers. Is there anyway around this? It kinda becomes confusing when you start mapping a cave with pocket topo when you have letter stations all over the place. :shrug:
There's nothing that makes me more excited than finding a place underground that no one has ever seen or been in!

PocetTopo follows philosophy including stations numbering conventions of another program: Toporobot. You may find details about Toborobot method here:

You may write letters only in last column - notes.
