Drawing a Site Plan

Anonymous
Not applicable
Is it possible to draw a site plan using the degrees, minutes, and seconds like an engineer would?

Go: Archicad> Preferences> Working Units & levels: Set Angle Unit to "Surveyor's unit".

Draw a line: click start point, hit "A" and type the bearing (N 34 34 34 E), hit "R" and type the length. You may have to play with the bearing orientation to get it right.
