Description

Write all point data to a named points file.

How to use

Write all points in memory to a points file. You are prompted for the name of the points file. If the points file already contains data you are asked whether you wish to merge the points in memory or overwrite the data already in the file.

Any current point data filter is ignored, and you are given the opportunity to enter a different output filter.

The output file will contain the standard point data fields XPT, YPT and ZPT, and SYMBOL, plus any additional attribute fields.
