Changing The Field Shape

---

Back to tutorial overview

---

A field shape (soccer 11v11, american football, australian football, baseball, etc.) can be changed without creating a new plan.

Where to locate the option for changing field shape is described here:
Locating the field shapes

please note

• If you change to plan defined by Point Groups you will need to set the points again.
  Existing points will not be re-used.
• If you change from a plan defined by Flags to a plan also defined by Flags then the Flag positions will be re-used.
  • Please note: the new plan may not scale to the same field size.
    However, it will maintain the orientation defined by Flag 1 and Flag 2.
  • Field width and length will not change.
• When changing the field shape the plan name remains the same.
  • After having changed the field shape it can be a good idea to rename the plan.
    How to rename a plan is described in this tutorial: Edit Plan Name
• A field needs to be opened before its shape can be changed.
  How to open a field is described in this tutorial: Open A Plan

Useful scenarios

• If you quickly want to change the plan type without going through the process of creating a new plan.
