Designing a Field in Sections

Question:
How can I design a field into sections and avoid paying for the same field twice?

Answer:
In OSDv1.4, you can only have one boundary so if you want to design separate areas individually, we recommend this approach:

1. Import the survey data
2. Calculate a landform design.
3. Unlock the design and you will be forced to save as normal to some name eg FieldASection1.osd.
4. Then use menu File > Save As and change name slightly eg FieldASection2.osd.
5. Now you have two unlocked design files that you can design independently. 
6. You can repeat step 4 as many times as you want. 

OptiSurface Designer V2 we will have ability to have multiple boundaries in the same file so this procedure will not be necessary.
