Microstation V8-Getting Angles into Azimuth Mode

Microstation V8-Getting Angles into Azimuth Mode

(OP)
Greetings,

I just changed over to MSV8, I am handling lots of data from TMS and my surveyors. I would like to set the angle to 0 degrees to the top of the viewer and have the degrees increase clockwise, in azimuth mode, like a normal compass. I am stuck with 0 degrees to the right(x-axis) and an increase counter-clockwise. I am new user so I am bit stumped.

Thanks, Terrence

Settings>Design file>coordinate readout

This will let you set your coordinate readout to azimuth instead of the default bearing.  Also set your accuracy here.
