Angle/Distance

The Angle/Distance sub-menu contains many commands for labeling the angle and/or distance of line segments. The line segments can be defined by picking a line, picking a polyline segment, entering two point numbers or picking two points. The angles can be labeled in bearing, azimuth or gon format. In the command names, the "_" indicates which side of the line label will appear. For example, "Bearing_" will label the bearing above the line and "_Bearing" will label below the line. There is also a Custom Label Formatter option. When this command is used and Option is chosen, there will appear a Custom Line Label dialog with various settings.
