To Create Points at a Direction/Direction Intersection

Creates a point at the intersection of two directions, each defined by a point and a bearing or azimuth.

Create a point at the intersection by specifying the offset distance from each direction line.

  1. Select settings and create styles, layers, point groups, and description keys.
  2. Home tab Create Ground Data panel Points menu Create Points - Intersections Direction/Direction .
  3. Specify the start point by doing one of the following:
    • Pick a point in the drawing.
    • Use Transparent commands to specify the point.
  4. Specify the direction from the start point by doing one of the following:
    • Pick a point in the drawing.
    • Use Transparent commands to specify the second point.
    • Enter Z. Enter the azimuth of the direction line.
    • Enter B. Specify the quadrant and the bearing.
  5. Specify the offset distance by doing one of the following:
    • Enter a distance.
    • Pick a point in the drawing to define the offset.
    • Use Transparent commands to specify a point to define the offset.
  6. Repeat steps 3-5 to define the second direction line.
  7. Enter a description, or press Enter to skip the description.
  8. Enter an elevation for the point, or press Enter to skip the elevation.
Note: Many factors affect how the point is displayed. For more information, see To Control the Appearance of Points in a Drawing.
