About Using Layout Curves

Use a layout curve to anchor objects along a path. You can define the following objects as layout curves:

• Walls
• Curtain walls
• Window assemblies
• Spaces
• Mass elements
• Roofs
• Lines
• Arcs
• Circles
• Ellipses
• Polygons
• Polylines
• Splines

Layout curves are best suited for objects with linear geometry, such as polylines, walls, or splines. If you need nodes on a two-dimensional (2D) object, consider using a layout grid instead.
