Import an OCAD Map

It is possible to import an OCAD map in a course setting project.

  1. Choose the Import command from the File menu.
  2. Select an OCAD map in the browser and click the Open button.
  3. The Import OCAD Map dialog appears. Read the Import OCAD Map article if you do not know how to deal with this dialog.
  4. Click the OK button to finish.

Use this function for example to import ski or bike orienteering maps, where control circles and connection lines are not printed over all map objects.

Import Courses from ORware

With this function course definitions exported as *.txt or *.csv file from the event software ORware can be imported to an OCAD course setting project. This import is primarily thought for events where the runners from a class have individual courses (butterflies, loops etc.). The import creates one course per runner with it's individual course definition.

The course setting objects (start, controls, finish etc.) have to be added to the course setting project before starting with the import.
