Using a Point Object to Specify a Point Location

Product Documentation
Intermediate

You can specify a point location by selecting an existing point.

Points are highlighted as you move the cursor over them.

The northing and easting value from the point are read from the selected drawing point. If you are prompted to enter an elevation, the default choice is the elevation value of the point. You can use the point’s elevation value or you can enter another value.

A transparent command can only be used within a running command.

To specify a point location by selecting a point

  1. When you are prompted to enter a point in a command, do one of the following:
    • Enter 'po.
    • Activate the Transparent Commands toolbar and select .
  2. Select the point in the drawing.
  3. If you are prompted, enter an elevation.

    If the point you selected in the previous step has an elevation, it is listed as the default elevation, which you can select by pressing Enter. For more information, see Entering an Elevation for a Transparent Command.

    Note

    Elevation prompting for transparent commands is controlled by the Transparent Command setting Prompt For 3D Points. For more information, see Transparent Command Settings.
