Hello All. I am new to MicroStation and I have been taking some on-demand courses through Bentley. However, I am in dire need of assistance. I am currently working in a dgn that is MicroStation J version. Is there any way that I can inquire a lines elements to show me a bearing and distance? If I use "Ctrl + I" the line will show me a direction, however it's not exactly relative. The drawing has been rotated to "plan view", if that's even the correct language. The distances are correct. I'm a cherry when it comes to MicroStation, so please be patient with me. TIA!
