Alignment to offset holes?

Hi all. First post. Sorry if it's a rookie question.

I want to do a Plan-Circle-Circle alignment.
The first hole is the x0 y0 origin.
The second hole has some given coordinates, say x8.0, y4.0.

I don't want to have to calculate the angle and use the "Offset angle" in the "Rotate to" field.
I also don't want to use an iterative alignment.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Steve

D'oh. Stupid eyes.

That figure still doesn't say what you think it's saying. Yes, the mutually perpendicular plane is offset 15. That isn't the same as saying "use an offset line". You cannot do that with a circle, because it is a closed feature. You have to find the line between B and C and offset rotate by the basic angle. Unless the callout is only basic in one axis.
