    Entering angles

    Enter an angle using degrees, minutes, and seconds in any dialog that expects an angle. The format is one of the following:

    > d;m;s

    >-d;m;s (for negative angle)

    >-(d;m;s) (for negative angle)

    where d, m, and s are numbers.

    Note: This syntax does not work for the Calculator dialog, or for the calculator that is embedded in the Parameter dialog.
