At any prompt to locate a point, enter tracking, track, or tk.

First tracking point: Specify a location or distance

Next point (Press ENTER to end tracking): Specify a second location or distance

Tracking specifies a series of temporary points, each offset from the previous

one. Thus, you specify a new point location from a series of directions and

distances. To determine the location of each temporary point, you can use

direct distance entry. First move the cursor to specify the direction, and then

enter a numeric distance.

Alternatively, tracking can establish a new point by combining the X and Y

values of two specified points. You can specify these two points in any order,

depending on the cursor direction after the first point. Direct distance entry

specifies a distance in the direction of the current location of your cursor.

Coordinate filters combine X, Y, and Z values from different points into a

single point. Relative coordinate entry locates a point relative to the last point

entered.

You can also access tracking by holding down SHIFT and right-clicking to

display the object snap shortcut menu.
