Hi,

I have a big flat floor (pool deck) and I have to locate several points (floor drains, corners of elements, posts, etc). I already located all my points using the "Spot Coordinate" option. My deck is a perfect circle and we want the center of the circle to be 0.00, 0.00 (I am using shared coordinates). The problem is that we need the tags to show N,S,W & E directions, instead of only N or S, or E or W. My spots coordinates to the left show a negative E value (ie E-34.98 instead of W34.9, and my points south of the center show a negative N value (ie N-65.34 instead of S65.34). Please see attachement. Does anybody knows how to do this?

Thanks in advance

I don't think it's possible.
