Polylines, Polygons, & Curves
Tools for drawing curves can be accessed from the Draw menu or the Curve
toolset on the All-In-One toolbar. You can also activate the Curve toolbar
(which contains the same commands but can be docked anywhere onscreen)
by right-clicking a bar, then clicking Toolbars on the pop-up menu that
appears. Simply check the Curve check box in the Toolbars dialog box, then
click OK to make the Curve toolbar visible onscreen.
TIP
As you are drawing a curve, you can press DELETE to remove the last drawn
vertex.
To draw a fitted curve
1
On the Draw menu, click Curve, Fitted, or click the Fitted Curve button
on the All-In-One toolbar.
2
Check the Closed check box on the edit bar if you want a closed curve. If
you want an open curve, leave the check box unchecked.
3
Click the startpoint. A rubber-band line appears.
4
Click three or more vertices.
5
Right-click to complete the curve.
