Hello,</div>
<div style="direction:ltr;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);margin:0px;font-family:Aptos,Aptos_EmbeddedFont,Aptos_MSFontService,Calibri,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;color:rgb(0,0,0)">
I am trying to digitise a series of old gold lease "portion plans" produced in the 1880s in Australia by a mining surveyor using a compass and chain. The data for each gold lease includes a table of 1) compass bearings in degrees and 2) distance measurements
in links (0.2 m) for each vertex of the lease polygon (mostly a rectangle or trapezoid but sometimes more complex). </div>
<div style="direction:ltr;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);margin:0px;font-family:Aptos,Aptos_EmbeddedFont,Aptos_MSFontService,Calibri,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;color:rgb(0,0,0)">
The Advance Digitizing Tools would seem to be ideal for this data except for the angle measure (a) which I can't input as a compass bearing (0-360 deg). The current settings with 90 deg E as the zero makes conversion of compass bearings very tedious.</div>
<div style="direction:ltr;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);margin:0px;font-family:Aptos,Aptos_EmbeddedFont,Aptos_MSFontService,Calibri,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;color:rgb(0,0,0)">
Is it possible to change the angle variable (a) to a compass bearing?</div>
