Field notes / Guide 03
Prepare for an offline site visit.
A file visible in a cloud folder may still need downloading. Make a local copy and check it before travelling.
- While connected, open every required DWG or ASCII DXF in LinePocket. Wait until the drawing is fully prepared.
- Check that the relevant plans, labels, and layers are visible. Read and resolve compatibility warnings for the detail you need.
- Confirm each drawing appears in Saved Files, then reopen it there.
- If you need measurement, activate the seven-day trial or buy/restore Pro while connected. Complete the App Store confirmation before leaving. Check that a trial will remain active throughout the visit.
- Enable Airplane Mode and reopen the saved drawings. Check navigation and the tools you need on that iPhone.
Keep a backup view
Carry a reference export from the authoring application for critical checks. LinePocket displays supported 2D objects and may omit unsupported content.
Purchasing or restoring requires a connection. Previously verified Pro access and locally saved drawings support offline use; a new phone or reinstall may require restoration while connected.
