There are three types of locations; point, polyline and polygon. Polygon location type allows to create a polygonal marking to certain area. User can select the coloring for outline and fill used on the marking.&#x20;

When it comes down to an attachments, there are differences between ACC and Trimble Connect version. The differences are explained in the table below.&#x20;

Biggest difference is that in ACC environment only files located in the project can be added as attachments to a marking.

Once everything is set up and the marking is ready to be published, proceed by clicking **Create marking**.
