Trimble Business Center

I am running into an issue where my point symbols are not displaying in the correct location when displayed in a dynaview while drafting. I have created a point label style and applied it to two points. The point symbols show in plan view in the right location. Then in sheet view the point symbols are placed very far outside the dynaview. When i turn off "Show point symbols" the default point symbol shows in the dynaview in the correct location. Below are some picture showing the issue.

@Alan Sharp, @Tim McClannahan Any help is greatly appreciated.

Plan View showing point label style with point symbol

Sheet View showing point symbols missing in the dynaview.

Sheet View showing where the point symbols are drawn in relation to page layout. Page layout is in NW corner and symbols are in the SE corner.

Sheet View showing the location of the point symbols as approximately X=69780 Y=-40770

I just ran into this same issue

I ran into the same issue running v5.2. If you add a symbol to a point and rotate your dynaview, it will rotate the points in sheet view for some reason. As long as you don't add a symbol to a point (not ideal for drafting), you can rotate your dynaview and still see your points.I made a Trimble support case and they were able to recreate the issue. They said it must be a bug. They figured it would be fixed by the next patch. I ended up opening my drawing back up in 5.1 and was able to use point symbols with a rotated dynaview.

Still having this issue having updated to v5.21

How about it fellas..... plans on fixing this?

@Pat L'Heureux  @Alex Culbertson @Katie Byron

Are you guys still having the issue after the 5.30 update. I am.

See my last post in my thread related to the same issue.

Point Symbol not showing in Sheet View 

I am and am not seeing it in 5.3. I have a project that was created in 5.20 that when opened in 5.30 still has the rotated point symbol problem. I recreated the project from scratch in 5.3 and the points show up in the correct spot. I'll continue to test this and let you know if I find something different.

I spoke too soon. I realized I didn't have a dxf file imported into my recreated design. As soon as I imported that file the point symbols moved. I could toggle off the dxf in the view filter manager and the point symbols would return to their proper location. I've included some screen shots below.

DXF with View Filter On

DXF With View Filter Off

We looked at a file that Richard shared with me yesterday and found that when we turned off a number of data layers in the View Filter that the Symbol Rotation Issue went away at one point, so we have tracked this down to some piece of data / data type is causing this problem to trigger and the Development Team are now looking at what that cause is. Apologies that this was missed, but in tests on clean data the problem that we had identified in 5.2 was addressed - it now seems that there was something more to this than we had found earlier. 

There is a patch planned a few weeks out from now, I hope that it can be addressed in that release

As always @Alan Sharp thank you for your help. I have another project that was displaying the same behavior if needed.
