Creating a segment at a right angle (90 degrees) to the previous segment

Right Angle limits a segment to be at a 90-degree, right angle to the previous segment. You might use the Right Angle construction method to create building footprints or other features that have square corners.

1. These steps can be used to create vertices in either lines or polygons:

   To create a vertex in a line	Click a line feature template in the Create Features window and click the Line tool .
   To create a vertex in a polygon	Click a polygon feature template in the Create Features window and click the Polygon tool .

2. Create a segment using any construction method.
3. Click Right Angle on the Editor toolbar construction method palette.
As you move your pointer, the segment is limited to being at a right angle to the previous segment.
4. Click to place the vertex at the endpoint of the segment.
