Soft menus are set with flag -117. Enter -117 and then SF and enter. Or use the flag browser by way of the MODE key.

To do the conversion, set the mode you're converting from using...
PRG -> MODES -> ANGLE
then either RECT, CYLIN; SPHERE

Then enter enter what you're converting from...
e.g. (1,2) in rectangular
and press CYLIN to convert to cylindrical
