To Transparently Use a Whole Circle Bearing and Distance to Specify a Point Location

You can specify a point location using a whole circle bearing and a distance from a reference point.

The last entered point is used, or you must specify a current point. From the start point (1) and North meridian (2), specify a whole circle bearing (3), and distance (4), to specify a point (5).

The reference point is updated each time you enter a point.

1. When you are prompted to enter a point within a command, do one of the following:
   • Click Transparent tab Plan panel Azimuth Distance Find.
   • Right-click to display the Transparent Commands context menu Whole Circle Bearing Distance.
   • Activate the Transparent Commands toolbar and select Whole Circle Bearing Distance .
   • Enter 'zd.
2. If you have not yet entered any points in the main command, specify a temporary point from which the whole circle bearing and distance will be measured.
3. Specify a whole circle bearing by either clicking in the drawing or entering a value.
4. Specify the distance by either clicking in the drawing or entering a distance.
5. If you are prompted, enter a level. For more information, see To Enter a Level for a Transparent Command.
   Note: Level prompting for transparent commands is controlled by the Transparent Command setting Prompt For 3D Points. For more information, see About Transparent Command Settings.
