The toolbar provides two types of parcel creation tools:
- Freehand tools draw parcels as a network of lines, curves, and polylines.
- Precise sizing tools control the angles and directions of lot lines.
You can also set default values for the parcel sizing parameters and the Automatic Layout options.
Tip: Object Snap can be very useful when creating parcels, especially with the freehand tools. Use Object Snap to attach lines exactly to existing endpoints and vertices.
Note: Using the layout tools is the only activity possible while the Parcel Layout Tools toolbar is open.
