Commands: po, point
Specify location
Click in the drawing area or use the following syntax with the command line:
- x,y
- This creates a point at coordinates x,y.
- @x,y
- This creates a point located relative to the last point created;
- the coordinates are added to the coordinates of the last point created (vector addition).
- distance<rotation
- This creates a point a specified distance from the origin, and rotated a specified amount of degrees around the origin.
- The positive x axis is at 0 degrees, the positive y axis is at 90 degrees.
- @distance<rotation
- This creates a point a specified distance from the last point created, and rotated a specified amount of degrees around that point.
