Drawings Library

The Drawings Library holds uploaded project drawings for you to assign and use across multiple locations. These drawings can be uploaded from Trimble Connect, VFP, or from your computer.

Note: Currently you can assign a drawing to a new location only on the Drawing Calibration page. We’ll be adding this functionality to the Drawings Library in a future release.
If you’re uploading a drawing from VFP you:
  • Must be logged in to VFP
  • Must have geometry permissions to see the library
If you're uploading a drawing from Trimble Connect, you:
  • Must be logged in to Trimble Connect

Once a drawing is uploaded to the library, it cannot be deleted.

Drawings Library Definitions

Upload at DPI
Choose the quality of the image. A DPI of 300 results in better quality, but Field View may perform more slowly. An image with a lower DPI will have lower quality, but Field View will perform faster.
Convert to Grayscale
Select this to convert a color image to shades of gray. This option uses less memory than a color image.
Description
A description of the drawing. This is for the library only and isn’t visible when the drawing is used in a location. We’ll be adding the ability to use the description from VFP in a future release.
Revision
A number for the revision. Decimal places can be used. You may choose to number a small change as .1, and number a larger change with the next whole number.
