Adjusting Dynamic Input to YOUR needs

[netman]

I want to be able to see angles in Dynamic Input with the base line set where I need it to be.

 

 

In the red is where AC puts the baseline in the DYN command.

 

Is there a way for me to "tilt" the baseline so i can use it in ANY angle, like in the blue?

 

 

* I am referring to the baseline as where 0 degrees begins*

You should consider the different available polar tracking options in your settings.

Excellent! I did not know about this. That works out just fine and just in time for a big ol' project tonight.

 

Thanks a heap ol' buddy!

Just another question;

 

How do you all get a Snap Shot of the AutoCAD screen ( like you just did) when you're showing what to look for. I would like to use this when I ask questions but can not figure out how to do it.

 

thank you again.......

You're welcome, glad that helps you out.

I am using this on Vista. ALL PROGRAMS > ACCESSORIES > SNIPPING TOOL.

Just Print Screen and paste into MS Paint, crop and edit as needed. ALT + Print Screen will copy just the current window.
