| Inerting a line with a distance and bearing | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Craig, Enter the data this way @104<N26d22'33"W You just need to put in the data in a different sequence. You have to pick your starting point first then the @ tell's AutoCAD that you are referencing the last point and then going 104 units < angle. If you are doing a lot of distance bearing traverses you might want to go to http://www.geocities.com/junglejimy/Lisp.html and download my traverse lisp program. I designed it with the idea of having the look and feel of the old HP 41 calculator traverse program and to allow you to enter all data with your 10 key. Good Luck Jim |
