Survey COGO

This function allows you to add a coordinate point to the drawing. You can specify the point name, elevation and description. The point has the same format as the import points function, and can therefore be used by the other COGO functions.

In the following example, add a coordinate point to the drawing.

If the drawing is not in Surveyor Mode, you can change the coordinate system in Drawing Settings.
