Hate Keyin In Angle Quadrants Well Good Riddance With This Tip
Original Tip Date:
May 2, 2005
Hate keyin in angle quadrants? Well good riddance with this tip!
If you want to type
N89^59'42"E you can enter it as
N89;59'42"E
Brent James
shares this tidbit!
When specifying quandrants for entering angles, you can use the following numbers:
NE = 1
NW = 2
SW = 3
SE = 4
You can leverage this information by typing the quadrant number, a space and then the degree value in the angle field of AccuDraw.
Add on this tip and look what you can do!
N89^59'42"E
now becomes
1 89;59'42"
