Paul Saunders said:Does anyone know how to change categories in bulk in Memory Map? It seems to
me that you can only change them one at a time, which is a real pain.
For example, if I create a category called trig points, then load a list of
all the trig points in the UK, is there a way to import them all straight
into the trig points category? Or select them all and change the category
with a single click? Or another way of doing it?
In what format is your list of trigpoints before importing them?. If they are in .csv
(comma-separated value) text format, one Mark per line, the category-name is specified by positional
parameter (the 13th. parameter) for each Mark. You could insert the name in each line by a
global-edit, assuming a unique positional context could be established for that parameter.
If you imported them from some other format, you can export them to .csv format, do the edit and
reimport them.
I often use this export-to-csv / edit / reimport idea to overcome the limitations of the Route and
Mark handling in MM, which has very few bulk operations available.
