How to specify angle when creating angled line?

[Ken DeChant]

DeltaCad instructions say several places to enter angle value but do not say how to enter the angle value. I simply want to draw a line with a given length and angle (polar coordinates), but I haven't figured out how to enter the angle value.

Ken,

If I understand you correctly you have drawn an angled line and now you want to add dimensions to that line. I think the problem is you have to have "two" lines in order to create dimension lines and not just one angled line. Those lines are then selected under the "dimension" tab (not under the "line" tab) to create the needed dimensions. If you still have problems with this let me know and i'll upload a video tutorial on this subject.

Thanks, for your quick response. I realized that I was using the angled line function with two point instead of the angled line function with one point. It has been quite a long time since I have used DeltaCad so I am in a re-learning curve.

Welcome to the group Ken.

I believe you figured it out.
