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.

Steps:

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.
