Line from NE

Is it possible to draw a line from a known Northing/Easting to another
Northing/Easting? I've looked under the line menu but I couldn't see
anything there.

Thanks,

Brian

p.s. I can't use x/y coordinates because I have applied a basepoint/north
rotation to the drawing.

Hi Brian,

Start the line command from the [Lines/Curves] menu and type .N.
You will be prompted for a Northing, then an Easting etc.

The three toggles .N .G and .P work on most of the commands in the
lines/curves menu as well as the 3D polylines in the Terrain menu.
