To create a guide point at a specific distance, you must.

1) start the tape measure at the starting guide point.
2) Move the tape along the line you want the new measure point on
3) Manually enter the distance
4) ????????? What the hell do you press, and it ain't enter ??

I used sketchup a few times but it's been years.

You have to press the ft' carat, not just put the number in... Jeebus ! Duh..

Ah. I used it to draw all my speakers and fancy half round subwoofers.
It works well but was a little limited when I used it.

I like to go into the surveyor with exactly what I want.... It fits the purpose perfectly.
I like to know exact acreage, lot lines, and dimensions. I'm going to market it the way I draw it, and depending how much land the buyer wants, I'll adjust it, and then have the surveyor draw it officially. It saves me the initial surveying money, in case changes have to be made.

I haven't used it in a while. I assumed you had done the '. :lol:
