    Hi, can anyone help me, please?

    I'm using AutoCad 2002. I have to draw a circular sample plot with many
    small circles (that represents trees in circular plot in forest). I have
    these data:

    plot radius: 30m
    tree1: distance from center of plot: 6,8m
    tree diameter: 0,357m
    azimuth (from center of plot): 10 degrees
    tree2:...
    tree3...
    ..
    ..
    ..
    ..
    Data are in Excel file. What is the fastest way to draw all this (there are
    a plenty of plots and trees)?

    I hope you will understand.
    Thanx, ki

    draw a circle at the center of the plot & copy (multiple) , select center of
    circle as base point & type @,357<10
    you can copy as many as you want to different locations

    HiHo;
    If the distance, tree diameter and azimuth are different for each tree,
    then a script might be a solution. I used to use a block for deciduous
    and another for conifer drawn at one unit. Then "insert" and scale at
    the various coordinates.
