Pole Flag

The Pole Flag command allows a user to place a larger number of poles/pedestals between two points than the actual drawing scale would allow. It adds temporary placement markers for placing multiple poles or peds between two points. Once the flags are placed, use the strand command while using the flags as your reference for each pole placement.
