Add a floating curve with a specified pass-through point and direction at the pass-through point to an existing entity.
The attachment entity (1), pass-through point (2), and direction (3) determine the curve attachment point and radius. You cannot edit the radius for this type of curve.
The result is a floating curve that is always tangent to the entity it is attached to.
Tip
You can use transparent commands when you are prompted to specify direction, radius, or length, or use station offsets to specify any points. For more information, see Transparent Commands.
To add a floating curve (from entity, through point, direction at point)
- Click the alignment. Click Alignment tab
Modify panelGeometry Editor
. - On the Alignment Layout Tools toolbar, click
