<p>Hello Phil & Calvin,<br>
<br>
Thanks very much to you both for those tips.<br>
<br>
The Vector Shake Tools options were good but required some extra
work to transfer the new information to the existing layer. I
think I could have made it work but then found one of the options
in Stack Exchange to be exactly what was needed.<br>
<br>
This is it:<br>
<br>
"And now it is even easier than Kay's answer -first use 'explode
lines' tool, yielding all line segments, then calculate azimuth
with field calculator: <b>main_angle($geometry)</b>". <br>
<br>
This is brilliant, it can be used to populate an attribute field
in the table or directly in a label formula as desired. Exactly
the solution I was looking for!<br>
<br>
Thanks very much to you both, this is a great resource…<br>

Subject: [Qgis-user] Labeling Lines with Bearings
Hello,
I need to put the line direction (azimuth) into a line label. Some searching has not come up with anything.
Is there a way? Thanks very much . . . .
