Stellar rotation maps the surface of a star into its line spectrum and gives a dimension to a point on the star - the Doppler dimension. This is of great importance for the detection of Zeeman polarization especially in certain cases. Typically a magnetic configuration will exhibit both polarities, thus the polarization signals of oposite signs may superpose and cancel. The Doppler coordinate will be in general different for parts of the stars having different polarities and therefore the polarization signals will also appear at different wavelengths and will not cancel. Moreover, the time variations plus the Doppler coordinate constitutes two variables that may allow the reconstruction of two dimensional map of the magnetic field over the star surface.

Attention will be given to the set-up that allows spectropolarimetry with high spectral resolution and high S/N ratio. The use of cross dispersion spectrographs allows one to observe several tens of spectral lines. The method of adding signals to increase S/N ratio will be indicated.
