Edge 2 Posted August 29, 2007 I guess you have it more or less right, except for the commas. Working XYZ file looks like this: <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE"> 0.0 0.0 -50.00 0.0 20.0 -50.01 0.0 40.0 -50.01 0.0 60.0 -50.02 0.0 80.0 -50.02 0.0 100.0 -50.03 0.0 120.0 -50.03 ... Your file should contain data for square area of desired size, which should be power of 2: 64x64, 128x128, ... up to 4096x4096. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cbfasi 4 Posted August 29, 2007 so its tab delimited rather than comma delimited ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ozzzzzzy 0 Posted August 30, 2007 Thanks Edge, Do you now what the shortest distance between two points is. it looks like youre example is 20 feet/meters apart? and is the bottom left corner 0.0 Â 0.0? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Edge 2 Posted August 30, 2007 Distance between points depends on the size of your map. In this case, I wanted to create 5120x5120 m map with 256x256 cells, which means 5120/256=20 m vertex distance. I always used the same distance as it will be on the map, which is really 20 meters in this case. Yes, [0,0] is bottom left corner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
