In this exercise, you will successively subdivide a parcel with segments that are defined by their angle at the frontage.
This exercise continues from Exercise 2: Subdividing a Parcel with a Free-Form Segment.
Specify parcel creation settings
As you specify each parameter, notice that a preview graphic is displayed at the bottom of the Parcel Layout Tools window.
Parcel Sizing
Automatic Layout
When Automatic Mode is set to Off, the Remainder Distribution setting does not affect parcel layout. This setting will be used in later exercises.
Create individual parcels using a slide line
Notice that when you move the cursor to specify the end point, a yellow line displays the proposed frontage.
When you specify the frontage starting point, do not snap to the beginning of the curve. If the frontage starts at the beginning point of the curve, no solution will be found.
Preview graphics of the parcel creation parameters and proposed solution are displayed. The graphics are similar to those that were displayed while you were specifying parcel creation parameters in the Parcel Layout Tools window.
The new parcel is created and labeled, and a preview of the next parcel is displayed in the drawing.
Notice that the preview graphic updates to reflect the changed area value.
Two new parcels are created and labeled.
Create multiple parcels simultaneously
A preview of the proposed parcels is displayed.
The new parcels are created and labeled.
You will correct the placement of some of the lot lines in the Editing Parcel Data tutorial.
To continue this tutorial, go to Exercise 4: Subdividing a Parcel with a Swing Line.
