FROM POINT allows you to determine whether the “From” point will appear as an absolute
value or an incremental value. Absolute values are based upon the distance from datum.
Incremental values are based upon the distance from one feature or step in a program to
another. No matter which you choose as a default setting, the other will always be available
by pressing the
ABS/INCR key.
Absolute “From” points will appear like this:
