Considering I am new in NanoCad, problems occur meanwhile working, I hope not to trashy forum with stupidities.
(And I couldn't find proper topic on forum, so I created new one.)

1. Is it possible to import .acad plot-styles into NanoCad?

2. What is input sequence for drawing under angle? When drawing an angle I usually input command for example:
PL / <45 / 50 - which draw a line 50 units under 45degres

Hello, Maja.

1. Yes, it's possible. Copy the desired plotstyles to C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming\Nanosoft\nanoCAD Х.Х\PlotStyles. Make sure that this folder is specified at Options - Standart directories - PlotStyles files location.

2. Draw a line with a given length under a given angle:
Line (or PLine) -> Specify the first point -> @lenght<angle (for example, @50<45)

Maybe you need the Polar Tracking mode?
Turn on the POLAR button in status bar, specify needed angle.
Polar tracking mode helps to specify a point, set at a specified distance and angle from the last selected point. The dotted tracking line with
a tooltip shows the distance from the last specified point and current angle value.
Using polar tracking mode you can create geometric creations with any specified interval. For example, if an angle of 30° was selected, tracking lines
will be displayed when the direction from this point to the cursor’s pick box is a multiple 30° (e.g. 60°, 90°, 120° and so on).

Some functions allows to input an angle without lenght, others - not, this is specific for each function. For example Xline, Rotate:

XLINE - Construction line
Specify start point or [Hor/Ver/Ang/Bisect/Offset/]: Ang
Enter angle of xline (0) or [Reference/]: 45

Rotate
Select objects or [?/]:
1 found
Current positive angle in UCS: ANGDIR=counterclockwise ANGBASE=0.000000
Specify rotation angle or [Copy/Reference angle/]: 62
