Hello, I need to draw a new scale into one old pressure gauge as shown on the attachment. I have started this by drawing two circles. Between them I need to draw short lines in accurate angles. I started to draw the lines from centre to the uppermost circle, but cannot see anywhere the angle. So the question #1 is: Can I see somewhere the accurate angle of a line?
And question #2 is: How can I erase or hide the sector of circular lines below the scale and straight lines from the centre so that only the small portions between the two circles will stay visible?
Compared to Coreldraw where it is very easy to erase parts of unwanted lines, it seems ashtonishing that so widely spread software as Inkscape is it does not have this possibility. Otherwise I am quite happy with the software but this is really frustrating.
