R-61

7&UY : creates a curve with a specified

incoming tangent from the next two points that
are stored with a description associated with

T-

Crv

. When the second point is stored, the prompt

shown here appears where the incoming azimuth
or bearing is specified.

5HFW : will compute and store the fourth and

final point that forms a rectangle or
parallelogram after three points are stored with
a description associated with

Rect

.

Note: At any time, the line type for any linework
command can be changed while collecting linework for a
particular feature. For example, a feature called FENCE

might primarily use the

Line

linework command, but might also

contain a curved section. To add a curve to the fence, you would use
the ,

Auto Linework

Quick Pick to open the Auto Linework screen

and toggle

Line

to

R-Crv

prior to storing the first point of the curve.

Once the second point of the curve is stored, the curve is defined and
appended to the FENCE polyline. This routine is enhanced with the

Props

command, described below.

;

On

: When checked, activates the associated linework command. If

a particular polyline is created and then this is unchecked for that
linework command, future points stored with the same description
would not result in any change to that polyline. But if this is then
activated again later, all future points collected using the same
linework command will be appended to the original polyline.

End

: toggles between the following two functions, giving you control

in collecting data for two or more separate features that use the same
linework command:

When the map icon is displayed for this button, a polyline has

been created for the associated linework command. Tapping the
button will then allow you to detach future points using this linework
command from the current polyline, resulting in future points being
added to a new polyline.
