Flyout for Creating a Horizontal/Vertical Curve



Horizontal Curve or Vertical Curve
The name of the comma horizontal is either Horizontal Curve or Vertical Curve depending on the alignment type.
Creates a horizontal/vertical curve between two lines.
See Creating a Horizontal Alignment and Creating a Vertical Alignment.


Insert Point
Inserts a point by breaking a line.

Flyout for Creating and Handling Points



Point
Creates a point
See Creating a Horizontal Alignment.


Point on Alignment
Creates a horizontal point.
See Creating a Horizontal Alignment.


Point by Offset
Creates a point on a horizontal alignment from a start point by defining an offset value.
See Creating a Horizontal Alignment.


Equidistant Points
Creates equidistant points along a horizontal alignment from a start point by defining an offset value or a number of points.
See Creating a Horizontal Alignment.


Switch Points
Switches from a typical sketcher point to an alignment-oriented point, and conversely.
See Creating a Horizontal Alignment.

Flyout for Creating Parabola Curves



Parabola
Creates a parabola curve.
