Is it possible to set a point to a new position with distance and bearing from a rangefinder. I´m in forest with my RTK GPS and collect some tree and field points. In some situations there is no GPS signal, so I must measure from my GPS point to the point in distance. But Qfield will create the point on the GPS location, not in distance. ArcGIS or Leica Zeno will add this feature to integrate a rangefinder. What I´ve tried now, I record a point, add fields with distance and bearing, calculate the new coordinate and make a point with virtual layer or geometry symbology. But how to place the point to the right position without virtual layer/symbology, before I save the point. It´s like an offset X/Y. I must move the cursor to the new location or shift the point. Is this possible? Best would be, to save the GPS and the distance point in the attribut table and have a check box with RTK position or distance position. So I can check the position later. Here is a ArcGIS sample https://mediaspace.esri.com/media/t/1_s41c0ebx/244548682
