Hi Bulia, I had a chance to look at this tonight. It partially solves my problem
The length measurement and use is spot on. However, the bearings (angles) do not operate as real compass bearings do.
1. Compass bearings start at 0 degrees and this starts dead vertical. Current zero degrees is horizontal.
2. Compass bearings increase in a clockwise direction. The current bearings increase in an anti-clockwise direction.
3. Compass bearings increase to 360 degrees. Current bearings increase only to 180 degrees.
The feel is good and natural and no other software I have used has this feature.
Fingers crossed, Erik
So have you seen my yesterday's addition to the Pen tool? You can now do this while drawing by watching the statusbar for the desired length and angle. Does this solve your problem?
