Custom Naming for Guidance Export

Alert

Custom Naming Templates currently have to be changed by our support team.  We do not have a user interface to edit naming of the exported lines.  Please contact [email protected].

We can create custom naming templates for each line type exported from Path Planner.  This allows for tailored file names to match your preferred format, whether for individual user or across your company/organization.

For more details, see the Template Options section for available variables and the Default Naming Convention section to understand how lines are named by default.
