Add floating vertical curves to build constraint-based profile geometry.
Floating entities are defined by specifying parameters and an entity to attach to. Floating entities are always tangent to the entity it is attached to, and are dependent on the other entity to define its geometry.

- Adding a Floating Vertical Curve with a Pass-Through Point and a Parameter
Add a floating vertical curve by specifying a pass-through point and a parameter.
- Adding a Floating Vertical Curve by Best Fit
Add a floating, three-point curve entity by best fit to a profile. You can define the best fit entity using a series of AutoCAD Civil 3D points, existing entities, or clicks on screen.
- Adding a Floating Vertical Curve with a Pass-Through Point and Grade
Add a floating vertical curve by specifying a pass-through point and a grade.
