The Line Segment option allows you to add a line between any two points on a stereonet or rosette plot view. To add a Line Segment:

1. Select Line Segment from the toolbar or the Tools menu.

2. In the active view, enter the first point graphically with the mouse.

3. As you move the mouse, a line will connect the first point to the current cursor location.

4. Enter the second point graphically with the mouse and the line segment will be added to the view.

After a Line Segment has been added, it can be moved, re-sized, formatted, etc. See the Edit Tools Overview topic for details.

NOTE: a multi-segment polyline can be added with the Polyline tool option.
