Hi Andrew, I am having an issue with the direction of North in Autocad 2018. We obviously want North to be up the page, which I can correctly set in my previous version of Autocad (2016). Even though I change the unit settings in 2018, when drawing a line it won't draw a bearing greater than 180deg from North up the screen. i.e. If less than 180deg it draws the line clockwise and if greater than 180deg it will draw the line from counter-clockwise direction. I am stumped. Thanks, Michael
Everything worked perfect for me except the last unit. I have a title plan and I have worked around the boundaries but the last one line goes in the opposite direction. Is there something else I need to be doing or for the last measurement do I just need to put the inverse of the angle in?Cheers!
+Jaime Sherlock without seeing the angles its hard to say. Sometimes you can draw lines at the angle and just mirror them later if that is an issue. I hope you can resolve it. Good luck
i need help with the report part, when i do the general legal description and pick my file, it shows an error on the export of the landxml file, any idea what im doing wrong or how i can fix thix
+neverfall16 if you want the co-ordinates to work out correctly then you need to. Not changing the clockwise setting will still allow lines to be created but the lines won't go in the direction you want.
Hi Andrew, thanks for your tutorial i totaly lost track on how to do boundry line bearings, thank god found yours, much appreciated ,
This was very simple and well explained. Thank you very much
Thanks, appreciate your comment, glad you enjoyed the tutorial

After you typed the Meters for the first symbol you said what before the degrees? List and symbol? I'm not sure.At 3:00 in the video.
I think he actually said "less than" symbol "

Do you have a tie line before plotting the lot bearing?
ken tolete no he doesnt..
Coz his auto cad doesnt have the program for that tieline
ken tolete his method is only for those laptops that dont have the program
Great video but it could be faster so, I released "Autocad Automatic Distance Labeling"
Just adjust the speed of the playback up or down. :)
How do you add bearing and dimension labels to these lines?
Please draw a complete site plan from a given detail.......
hello, how to label a true bearing on line?
when I draw the angle go in completely different directions than the old plot.
Try typinf UNITS at eh command prompt, then either tick or untick the Clockwise Check Box and see if that fixes your problem
I don't understand the minutes part
YOU DONT NEED TO PUT CLOCKWISE IN UNITS
