Controls

Control	Description
Style	Select the text style to use for the text.
From	Input the reference line from which the bearing or distance comparison will be computed.
To	Input the reference line to which the bearing or distance comparison will be computed.
Note	Type an optional note to include with the combined text. This control is unavailable if the note property is not included in the text styles format.

Notes

Select a combined text style intended for bearings and distances.
Create new text styles in Manage Text Styles.
Within the text style, you can define the inclusion of:
- From and To Bearing
- From and to Distance
- Difference in Bearing and Distance
- Note
The Note control is available when a Note property is included in the selected text styles format.
Created text displays:
- bearings using the angular Units, Rounding and direction Type (when applicable) specified for the bearing properties in the text style.
- distances using the distance Units, Rounding and Distance Type specified for the distance properties in the text style.
Text objects are dynamically updated if either of the vertices defining the reference line are modified.
Text is deleted if the intended purpose of the text style is changed from Bearing and Distance.
The text object's position is relative to the object or reference line.
