Search

The Coordinate Reference Systems dialog allows you to select a system based on any part of its name, region of use, or ID code. The primary source is the EPSG (European Petroleum Survey Group) database.

1. Coordinate System

When you enter a valid Search string in the Search box, the list is updated dynamically. The list of coordinate reference systems is restricted to those with names that match or partially match the Search string.

2. Transform Method

Select a transform method for the chosen coordinate reference system.

3. World Map

A map shows the bounds of the selected coordinate reference system in a global context. You can pan or zoom the map to see more detail.

4. Information

Information about the selected reference system is shown below the list.

In Vizex, the Forms button is only available for new forms opened via the Home tab or the Vizex tab, in the Layer group (or by double-clicking on a form type node in the Vizex Layer Types pane).

Click the Save button to save the changes you have made to the form set. Click Save As to save your changes as a new form set. Save As will default to the first available form set number.

Reset

Click Reset to clear the form of all values and reset the form to its default state. In the case of tabbed forms, set the first tab as the active tab.

Undo and Redo

Click Undo (CTRL + Z) to undo recent changes in the form. After an Undo, click Redo (CTRL + Y) to restore the last change that was undone.

Collapse

Collapse (roll-up) the form to preview a chart, or preview the results of an operation in Vizex, or obtain input values from Vizex, the Property Window, the File Editor, or the Plot Editor.
