Batch input using "Tract Scripts"

Previous | Next

 

Create Tract objects (Polylines) by entering all of the calls at once in a "script". Read more about this great new tool below!

 

Script Edtor

 

 

Fast and easy data entry

Just type each line or curve on its own row in the script editor (a text editor). If you are entering a deed, just paste it in, then delete everything except the line and curve data. Include comments where needed, and make a printout of the script, complete with line numbers.

 

Make changes easily

The script that you create is saved right inside of the tract entity. Once the tract has been plotted, you can easliy pull the script back into the editor and make changes and additions. When you save them, the tract is redrawn accordingly.

 

Lines and curves

Enter lines by bearing, azimuth, angles and deflection angles. Enter curves, including non-tangent curves using all of the curve options that you have with the regular curve command.

 

Sectional Breakdown (Aliquot parts).

Do you need to enter a parcel by aliquot parts? Just type it in ("The North 300 feet of the Southeast quarter of the Northeast quarter of section 2... etc."). Or if it starts at a sectional corner, then "The Northeast corner of the Southeast quarter of section 2..." then follow that with the metes and bounds calls.

 

Missing leg?

If a call is unknown or hard to read, then enter a question mark on that row and the program will attempt to solve for it. (do not do this if you need to check closure as this command will close the parcel).
