Any magnet users know the setting to get it to advance the next stake out station in reverse order after storing, i.e. going from 23+00 to 22+50?

In Survey Pro you'd set the interval to -50', but this software doesn't accept that.

Working backwards down a centerline, it's becoming a pita to manual set current station everytime.

Yes

Hmmm, could you share, please??ÿ I've been using Magnet for almost a year and have learned it very well to see just how powerful it is, especially in comparison to SurveyPro (which I've used for 14 years).?ÿ I've done several jobs where I've successfully staked a horizontal alignment, but today was the first time I've tried staking the station in reverse.?ÿ I'm staking 2 sides of a long easement line and just thought I would get to the end of the north alignment and turn around and stake the south alignment in reverse.?ÿ Couldn't figure it out.?ÿ As a side question (or possible solution), can you easily reverse an alignment (without having to re-enter it course-by-course)?

Thanks!
