To Create a Survey Figure Vertex Using an Angle and a Distance

Create a figure vertex using an angle turned from a previous backsight. Two or more vertices must exist in the figure to use this command.

In Toolspace, on the Survey tab, right-click a named network Survey Command Window.
At the Command line, enter:
FIGURE ANG-DIST [angle] [distance]

Command Line Example

FIG NE 1000 1000

FIG ZD 0 222.2222

FIG AD 55.5556 304.80

AZIMUTH: 255.5556 DISTANCE: 304.8000

NORTH: 1026.301 EAST: 766.510

FIG AD 83.3333 15.240

AZIMUTH: 138.8889 DISTANCE: 15.2400

NORTH: 1017.559 EAST: 778.993

Parameter	Definition
angle	The clockwise angle to turn from the last vertex in the figure. Enter this value in the current survey database angular units, either DMS, grads, decimal degrees, radians, or mils.
distance	The distance from the current vertex in the figure. Enter this value in the current survey database distance units.
