Re: [Qgis-user] Labeling Lines with Bearings

Hello Phil & Calvin, Thanks very much to you both for those tips. The Vector Shake Tools options were good but required some extra work to transfer the new information to the existing layer.  I think I could have made it work but then found one of the options in Stack Exchange to be exactly w

Re: [Qgis-user] Labeling Lines with Bearings

Hi Spring, The Shape Tools plugin has several tools for doing this. Once it is installed here are the options. 1) If you already have a line layer you can run the following from the QGIS menu "Vector->Shape Tools->Geodesic measurement layer". Deselect "Measure total length rather than each line se
