В тахеометре TS 06 в приложениях есть следующий пункт: «косвенные измерения» и затем выбираешь «радиальный». Задаёшь координату центра окружности и выставляешь радиальную опалубку прям в поле. Получается, измеряешь опалубку и на дисплее высвечивается расстояние от центра.
Есть ли что-и-то аналогичное в Captivate? День изучаю — не нашёл пока. Может, подскажите.#7

Добрый день, подскажите пожалуйста
В симуляторе Leica Captivate луч тахеометра направлен вертикально вверх, и никуда больше, почему? и что нужно сделать, чтобы он навелся на точку?Вложения:

Куратор
в нижнем правом углу три полосатые вехи нарисованы, нажми туда и введи угол какой хочешь, или выбери точку на карте, зажми курсор на пустом месте и выбери «навестись сюда»

Если не брать именно планшет Панасоник- Лейка, а просто Панасоник этой модели — то в 3 раза дешевле получиться планшет.
Вот думаю какое туда ПО по приличней поставить на 10-у Винду, чтобы можно было работать с разными тарелками…#20
