# Keying in points and lines

To create points and lines (including arcs and polylines), use the functions available from the Key in menu to enter coordinates for new points from the keypad.

You can also access some key in methods from the tap and hold menu in the map.

The selected Key in screen appears alongside the map. To select points, enter the point name or tap in the appropriate field in the Key in screen and then tap the point in the map. For other ways to select points, tap and select an option. See To enter a point name.
