Installing

GeoDin allows you to install object types in three different ways:

1. Installation from the GeoDin Website

Current object types can be installed directly from GeoDin’s server:

• Switch to the System tab at the top left of the GeoDin user interface.

• Open System Configuration and select the Object Types node.

• Start the Install method from this node.

• Under the third option [From the GeoDin website], click the button with the three dots.

• Select the object types to install by ticking the box in front of each.

• Click Install.

• To exit, click Close.

2. Installation from a ZIP Archive

If GeoDin is not connected to the Internet:

• Download updated object types manually from: http://update.geodin.com/objecttypes/ (Note: Do NOT use the ObjectTypesAll.zip archive from /8_save/ for this manual procedure.)

• Follow the same steps as mentioned in Section 1 above but select the ZIP archive via the second option in Step 4.

3. Installation from a Folder

You can also use object types from other GeoDin installations or a shared SYSLIB system folder:

• Follow the steps in Section 1, but select the corresponding folder (e.g., SYSLIB) as the source using the first option in Step 4.
