Parcel Layout Parameters Dialog Box

Use this dialog box to change the properties of parcel segments.

Attributes displaying as black text can be edited. Areas that are dimmed (gray) are not available.

Note: The constraint definition for each parcel subentity determines which parameters are displayed in the Parcel Layout Parameters window.

You cannot dock the Parcel Layout Parameters dialog box. You can pin it, and resize the window.

Use the horizontal and vertical scroll bars when the list is longer or wider than the window.

General

Type

Specifies either Line or Curve as the entity type.

Constraint 1

Specifies either Fixed, Free, or Floating as the general constraint type.

Constraint 2

Specifies a detailed description of the entity constraints.

Geometry (Line)

Length

Specifies the line length.

Direction

Specifies the direction of the line.

Start Station

Specifies the starting station of the line for the parcel segment.

End Station

Specifies the end station of the line for the parcel segment.

Start Point

Specifies the XY coordinates for the start point of the line.

End Point

Specifies the XY coordinates for the endpoint of the line.

Pass Through Point 1

Specifies the XY coordinates of the first user-specified pass-through point.

Pass Through Point 2

Specifies the XY coordinates of the second user-specified pass-through point.

Geometry (Curve)

Length

Specifies the length of the curve entity.

Radius

Specifies the radius of the curve entity.

Delta Angle

Specifies the included angle of the solved portion of the curve.

Start Station

Specifies the starting station of the curve for the solved portion of the alignment. Unsolved curves do not display a start station.

End Station

Specifies the end station of the curve for solved portions of the alignment. Unsolved curves do not display an end station.

Start Direction

Specifies the direction of the tangent coming into the curve.

End Direction

Specifies the direction of the tangent going out of the curve.

Start Point

Specifies the XY coordinates of the start point of the curve.

End Point

Specifies the XY coordinates of the endpoint of the curve.

Center Point

Specifies the XY coordinates of the center point.

Pass Through Point1

Specifies the XY coordinates of the first user-specified pass-through point.

Pass Through Point2

Specifies the XY coordinates of the second user-specified pass-through point.

Pass Through Point3

Specifies the XY coordinates of the third user-specified pass-through point.

Chord Length

Specifies the distance along the line joining the beginning of the curve (PC) and the end of the curve (PT).

Chord Direction

Specifies the direction along the line joining the beginning of the curve (PC) and the end of the curve (PT).

Mid-Ordinate

Specifies the distance from the midpoint of the curve, perpendicular to the midpoint of the chord.

External Tangent

Specifies the distance from the beginning of the curve (PC) to the PI or from the PI to the end of the curve (PT).

External Secant

Specifies the radial difference from the PI to the midpoint of the curve.

PI Included Angle

Specifies the included angle between the incoming and outgoing tangents of the curve.
