    <p>I ended up having my plotting program <strong>create a very basic Autocad script</strong>. I referred to <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5666056/matplotlib-extracting-data-from-contour-lines">this question</a> about extracting x,y data from a contour plot to write the Autocad script. Here is the relevant function:</p> <pre><code>def make_autocad_script(outfile_name, contour): ''' Creates an Autocad script which contains polylines for each contour. Args outfile_name: the name of the Autocad script file. contour: the contour plot that needs to be exported to Autocad. ''' with open(outfile_name, 'w', newline='') as outfile: writer = csv.writer(outfile, delimiter=',', ) # each collection is associated with a contour level for collection in contour.collections: # If the contour level is never reached, then the collection will be an empty list. if collection: # Set color for contour level outfile.write('COLOR {}\n'.format(random.randint(1,100))) # Each continuous contour line in a collection is a path. for path in collection.get_paths(): vertices = path.vertices # pline is an autocad command for polyline. It interprets # the next (x,y) pairs as coordinates of a line until # it sees a blank line. outfile.write('pline\n') writer.writerows(vertices) outfile.write('\n') </code></pre> <p>I send <code>make_autocad_script</code> the <code>outfile</code> and <code>contour</code> plot that I need, and in Autocad I import the script. This plots each contour as a random color, but that could be replaced with whatever color you wanted.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
