Notes You can also move draw objects or their points by typing a new coordinate or

distance and bearing/angle number within the corresponding text boxes.

Type new coordinates and click Apply to move circles, symbols, text, and

MapNotes. The whole object moves to the entered location. If you change the

distance and bearing numbers, the object moves in relationship to the object's

last location.

circles) in line segments in routable roads, trails, lines, splines, polygons,

rectangles, and arcs. If you change the distance and bearing numbers of the

individual points (not recommended for rectangles), the end point's distance

and bearing/angle change in relationship to the start point of the segment.
