NOTE Additional angles are absolute, not incremental.
List of Angles
If Additional Angles is selected, lists the additional angles that are available.
To add new angles, click New. To remove existing angles, click Delete.
(POLARADDANG system variable)
New
Adds up to 10 additional polar tracking alignment angles.
NOTE Before adding fractional angles, you must set the AUPREC system variable
to the appropriate decimal precision to avoid undesired rounding. For example,
if the value of AUPREC is 0 (the default value), all fractional angles you enter are
rounded to the nearest whole number.
Delete
Deletes selected additional angles.
Object Snap Tracking Settings
Sets options for object snap tracking.
Track Orthogonally Only
Displays only orthogonal (horizontal/vertical) object snap tracking paths for
acquired object snap points when object snap tracking is on. (POLARMODE
system variable)
Track Using All Polar Angle Settings
Applies polar tracking settings to object snap tracking. When you use object
snap tracking, the cursor tracks along polar alignment angles from acquired
object snap points. (POLARMODE system variable)
NOTE Clicking Polar and Otrack on the status bar also turns polar tracking and
object snap tracking on and off.
Polar Angle Measurement
Sets the basis by which polar tracking alignment angles are measured.
Absolute
Bases polar tracking angles on the current user coordinate system (UCS).
Relative to Last Segment
Bases polar tracking angles on the last segment drawn.
