Annotate an Angle

Hello Youssef,

Yes, you can annotate it using Dimensioning tool.

You need to hit the space bar to get pop-up window to select the Dimensioning tool.

Please refer to the attached video which demonstrates the same.

Hello,

Thanks for your response but this is not what I'm asking.

I want to annotate the angle between two elements using a text favorite within an annotation group for example or by using Civil Labeler.

Best regards

Hi Youssef,

For the  Civil Labeler / Text Favorites to work, you need an element to get your value from.
We do not make computations in Labeler, only fetch values via Text Favorites.

So 2 solutions:

1. Use "line By angle from element", and explicitly enter the angle between the 2 lines, which can be also useful when placing culverts.
   This way the angle will be directly accessible in Civil Labeler.
2. Use the Attached Civil Cell that generates an arc that stores this sweep angle.
   Then the Value exists, and can be annotated.

I've recorded a sample video and attached the Civil Cell.
