Importing multiple triangulations
Select this option to import more than one Minex triangulation. The resulting Vulcan triangulations will be stored in the same directory as the original Minex files. The triangulations will also inherit the names of the selected Minex files but with an extension of.00t added to end of the file name.
All import triangulations use the default triangulation folder set in preferences, unless you have defined an alternate path.
