Database Management Reference Manual
: Positions, Directions and Orientations in Expressions : POLAR
POLAR
The POLAR keyword allows positions to be defined in terms of a distance in a particular direction from a point.
The syntax is:
POLAR dir DISTance expr -+- FROM -+- pos -----.
                         |        |           |
                         |        ‘- point ---|
                         |                    |
                         ‘--------------------+--->
If FROM is not specified the default is the origin of the owner.
For example:
POLAR N 45 E DIST 20M FROM U 10 M
 
POLAR AXES PL OF PREV DIST ( ABORE * 10 ) FROM PL OF PRE V
