Notes
•
When you click the start or last end point of the line segment within a line
draw object and the Show Measurement check box is available (when using
the Polygon or Line tool) and selected, it displays the bearing or angle of that
point of the line, the length of the line segment (leg), and the total length of
the entire line object on the map.
•
When you click the start or end point of the line segment within a polygon
draw object, a text box displays the bearing or angle of that point of the line,
the length of the line segment (leg), and the total area of the polygon on the
map.
Points in Rectangles, Circles, and Arcs
Draw objects such as rectangles, circles, and arcs also contain points, but they are
treated differently.
Rectangles—;Contain shape points at the four corners, but the lines between the
shape points contain no editable end points. When you click one of these shape
points, a text box displays the width, height, and area of the rectangle on the map.
Circles—;Contain no shape points, but have a central point that does not display
until you snap it (see Note below) to another object. Clicking the circle displays a
central crosshair within the circle and a text box containing information on the area
and radius of the circle on the map.
Arcs—;Contain three shape points. When you click any of the points, a text box
displays the angle or bearing of the selected point, the radius of the arc, and the
total length of the arc line on the map.
Only the first and second points you placed on the map when creating the arc are
treated as start and end points (i.e., show red or green when clicked). The central
magenta shape point, or third point you placed, determines the shape of the arc.
Note For information on snapping a draw object to another draw object, see
Snapping Draw Objects
.
Points in Draw Objects
Point Objects, such as waypoints, symbols, and text, do not have shape or end
points. Text label objects contain a point at the bottom center of the text label box
and are only visible during a snap.
Points in MapNotes
MapNotes do not have shape or end points. They contain an anchor point at the end
of the text box. Click the MapNote to display a central crosshair at the anchor point.
