Place these files in the right location and you are done. For ‘xxxx’ use whatever is descriptive, for example ‘squashcourt’ or ‘ukmap’. The first table should take the name xxxx-Name.jmp and the second xxxx-XY.jmp. The Part ID column is required but I won’t be using it ( each part is made up of one or more shapes).īoth of these tables need to be saved. The first 4 rows give the coordinates for my square shape (with a shape ID of 1) and the next 3 rows give the coordinates for my triangle shape (shape ID of 2). The first column contains a unique identifier that is used to cross reference the “xy” table. These identifiers should be numeric and in ascending order. The second column contains the name that I will use to identify the shape. To illustrate this I’ll create the tables containing two simple shapes, a square and a triangle. Shapes are defined in two tables – one containing the shape names and the other containing the x-y coordinates. So how do you create your own custom shapes? But you can also create your own shape files, below for example, is the floor plan for a squash court: This is great if you have geographic data.
