To Create a Survey Figure Vertex Using a Bearing and Distance

Create a new vertex in a specified direction from the current figure vertex. At least one vertex must exist in the figure for this command to work properly.

1. In Toolspace, on the Survey tab, right-click a named network Survey Command Window.
2. At the Command line, enter:

   FIGURE BRG-DIST [quadrant bearing] [quadrant] [distance]

Command Line Example

BEG BFIG

FIG NE 1000 1000

FIG BD 61.1111 1 30.480

WHOLE CIRCLE BEARING: 61.1111 DISTANCE: 30.4800

NORTH: 1014.6902 EAST: 1026.7063
