Example of constructing a feature

In this example, a new point feature is constructed from two parent
circle features:

Press the Point Measurement key.

Press the Constr soft key or press the Up Arrow key to highlight the
last feature in the feature list. If the last feature in the feature list will
not be one of the parent features, press the Up Arrow key until the
first parent feature is highlighted. In this example, the first parent
circle feature is at the bottom of the feature list.

Press the ENTER key to select the highlighted feature. A checkmark
will appear at the feature location in the list.

Continue highlighting and then selecting features until all the
required parent features are selected. In this example, the second
circle feature is highlighted and selected.

feature is shown at the bottom of the feature list.
