Element Information- Line Bearing

[Stress Co_]

I was hoping to determine a line's bearing (my "Working Unit's" for angles is set at "Surveory's Units") by using the Element Information tool...... but it only lists the lines length.

Is there a way to do this ...short of tracing the line and reading the angle?

Thanks

Marc:

Move the project origin (option-shift on Mac) to one end of the line, then move the cursor to the other end and read the bearing from the coordinates palette.

That's excatally how I checked wall lengths before finding the Element Information tool. ...... But it'll work. Thanks for reminding me, David.
