Dicranurus Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 I'm trying to set up a new project using the NAD 27 Datum. When the coordinate menu comes up NAD 27 is not in the Datum list but a dialog in the menu says to use the Custom tab to select NAD 27 or build a custom Datum. I cannot find the Custom tab. Please let me know where it is located or how to get the NAD 27 datum. I'm including a couple of images that show the menu. Thanks for your help.

Dicranurus Posted March 11, 2019 Author Share Posted March 11, 2019 Jim Thanks for your help. I went to the Other Tab where it tells me to use the Build Button to specify the datum and projection parameters. I cannot find the Build button. Please direct me to where I can find a place to create a NAD 27 Datum, etc. Please see the attached image. Thanks Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edward Hakanson Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Hi, I am using Rockworks 17 Advanced and can select the "other" coordinates for custom projection without any problem. The issue is that one of my coworkers is also using Rockworks 17 Advanced and he the tab for "other" does not come up on his computer (he can only see the options of Local, SPC and UTM). What may be causing this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 He's probably using an older version. He needs to download the latest version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
