Using the Repeat Distance Indicator in AccuDraw

“

- The next feature of AccuDraw I want to demonstrate is the Repeat Distance Indicator. If I wanted to draw a perfectly square 50-foot box, I only have to key in the 50 feet one time. Select the Place Line command and issue a left mouse-click to start the line. Drag the cursor along the red axis and key in 50 feet, and then left-click to accept. Drag the cursor up in the green axis direction, and look for a perpendicular bar to appear indicating that you are at 50 feet. This perpendicular bar is the Repeat Distance Indicator. When you see this bar, just left-click to accept. Drag the cursor in the minus-X direction until you see the Repeat Distance Indicator, and left-click to accept. Drag the cursor in the minus-Y direction until you see the Repeat Distance Indicator, and left-click to accept.
