Fall Study Break, Monday and Tuesday, Oct. 13 and 14.  I will be in my office all day for office hours (on Monday).  Class as usual on Wednesday, October 15.


Week 7.  Trouble shooting...

1.  ArcView
    a.  Set working directory
    b.  Convert files to shape files if they do not come as shape files
    c.  Save the .apr file to the working directory
    d.  Move all the files in the working directory.  The .apr file is a template that reaches for the shape files and the associated indexing and datbase files.  The .apr file saves the colors and so forth.  If you run the .apr file on a path different from the one you created it in, you will have to "locate" the .shp files and the .dbf files with the new path, as prompted when trying to load the .apr file.  (More advanced users can use Notepad to open the .apr and use search and replace to alter the path quickly.)
2.  Webpages
    a.  Be sure to upload images along with pages
    b.  Check pages on both networked and stand alone computers
    c.  If images don't show, check path and check spelling (upper/lower case)
3.  PhotoShop
    a.  transparency
    b.  layers
