Sets the number of decimal places or fractional size displayed for linear
measurements.
Angle
Specifies the current angle format and the precision for the current angle
display.
Type
Sets the current angle format.
Precision
Sets the precision for the current angle display.
The following conventions are used for the various angle measures: decimal
degrees appear as decimal numbers, grads appear with a lowercase g suffix,
and radians appear with a lowercase r suffix. The degrees/minutes/seconds
format uses d for degrees, ' for minutes, and " for seconds; for example:
123d45'56.7"
Surveyor's units show angles as bearings, using N or S for north or south,
degrees/minutes/seconds for how far east or west the angle is from direct north
or south, and E or W for east or west; for example:
N 45d0'0" E
The angle is always less than 90 degrees and is displayed in the
degrees/minutes/seconds format. If the angle is precisely north, south, east,
or west, only the single letter representing the compass point is displayed.
Clockwise
Calculates positive angles in the clockwise direction. The default direction for
positive angles is counterclockwise.
When prompted for an angle, you can point in the desired direction or enter
an angle regardless of the setting specified for Clockwise.
Insertion Scale
Controls the unit of measurement for blocks and drawings that are inserted
into the current drawing. A block or a drawing that is created with units that
are different from the units specified with this option is scaled when inserted.
The insertion scale is the ratio of the units used in the source block or drawing
and the units used in the target drawing. Select Unitless to insert the block
without scaling it to match the specified units.
