This tutorial demonstrates two ways of resizing a parcel by moving a lot line.
The tools that you use to edit a parcel lot line depends on whether the lot line is attached.
An attached lot line is a parcel segment that was created with the slide angle, slide direction, and swing line precise sizing tools on the Parcel Layout Tools toolbar. You can use the slide angle, slide direction, and swing line precise editing tools to edit only attached lot lines. In this tutorial, you will learn how to use two precise editing tools:
- The Slide Angle – Edit tool slides a lot line at a specified angle through a selected parcel until a target area is enclosed.
- The Swing Line – Edit tool swings a lot line from a specified point through a selected parcel until a target area is enclosed.
If a lot line is created either from other Autodesk Civil 3D objects or the fixed line and curve tools on the Parcel Layout Tools toolbar, it is not attached. You can use grips and the feature line editing tools to change the geometry of these lot lines.
