Hello,<br>
My question is the following.<br>
I need to change the location of several points on a map. I mean,
for each point from a list, I have the distance from the initial
position towards a new final position (a line) and the angle to the
North (Azimuth) of that line. What I want is to know the X and Y
coordinates of the new final position, in order to put that point
into the new position. And I have too many points (over 1000) to do
it manually.<br>
It this clear?<br>
This is the scheme (in Spanish, sorry):<br>
<br>

<br>
As I understand, the Azimuth and Distance tool 'draws' points based
on azimuths and distances, but guided by the immediately preceding
point as reference. And it does not help me, because I need taking
the points independently, not in relation to the previous one,
because my points are independent observations. Is it correct or am
I misunderstanding the tool?<br>
Any idea to solve this problem?<br>
Thanks in advance<br>
<br>
