Basically entering @50.71'<N80d04'30"E fails.
Invalid coordinate or distance "@50.71'<N80d04'30"E".
Relative or not, with or without the '@' prefix.
Feet with a dot or a comma in my case.
Knowing that the suffix for feet is merely evaluated as times 12 regardless the drawing unit, see:
https://qcad.org/bugtracker/index.php?d ... sk_id=2478
(The request is intended for metric users entering 50' 8.52" resulting in 15456.408mm or 15.456408m instead of 608.52 units)
50.71' is then evaluated as 50.71*12 = 608.52
N80d04'30"E is evaluated as 9.925 in degrees
But seemingly invalid when used in polar notation.
50.71*12<N80d04'30"E
608.52<N80d04'30"E
@50.71*12<N80d04'30"E
@608.52<N80d04'30"E
Are all valid entries.
I would expect that polar notation is chopped up in two parts with String.split("<") resulting in two strings in an array:
A distance in Part1 = @50.71'
An angle in Part2 = N80d04'30"E
The @ in part1 means relative and is set aside in a flag.
Part1 = 50.71' and evaluates to 50.71*12 = 608.52
Part2 = N80d04'30"E and evaluates to 9.925 degrees or 0.1732239282604372rad
What gives 608.52 units (=inches) away from the relative position with orientation 9.925 degrees.
The next best thing would be converting the included unit to the document unit (FS#2478)
I see the orientation in various notations/units being converted. So, why not the distance?
