Joe_Carrick Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Does anyone know of a Chief Object (CAD, Block, Symbol or ???) other than a "Wall" that has the "angle" attribute. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, that should be "slope_angle" since it's relative to the angle in elevation/section, not relative to the plan view.polar coordinates. I'm really looking for something that's consistent and can be used as an intelligent North Pointer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alaskan_Son Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 BTW, I’ve also used 2 markers along with the x and y location attributes to get angles. You could actually do that and just include them in your north pointer cad block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I've been doing - but you have to select both and rotate about a center (current) point. It's not possible to block a wall and a North Arrow so I really dn't like this solution. I will take a look at your markers and see how that works. If it makes a "smart north pointer" I'll be really happy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
