Measuring angles
Angles are measured by probing points on the two lines (legs) that make up the
angle. Up to 100 points can be probed on each line. A minimum of two points
(per leg) is required. Use more points for greater accuracy. When more than two
points are probed on any line, a best-fit algorithm determines the location of the
line and a form (F ) value is calculated the line. Angles can also be constructed
from previously measured features.
To measure an angle
