The Lot Boundary tool can be used as a property line as well as a tool to section off specific areas of your landscape design. For example, one Lot Boundary could be used to section off a pond, another for a swimming pool, and yet another for the property line. Lot boundaries serve as guides and do not restrict your design in any way.
To add a property line or other lot boundary:
1. From the Utilities tab, click Add Lot Boundary.
2. Draw the lot boundary by clicking the left mouse button to add points. Press the Backspace key to remove the last point added, or press the Esc key to cancel. To enter a survey bearing, place at least one point and then press Enter. See Entering Angle and Distance for details.
3. To finish drawing the lot boundary, place the last point on top of the first point. Or, right-click to place the last point.
Tips:
•The Lot Boundary tool is similar to the Linear Dimension and 3D Dimension tools.
•The default style for a lot boundary is a dashed brown line, but this can be changed if desired. For example, a blue lot boundary could be used for water features, and a green lot boundary for garden designs.
•Lot boundaries do not appear during movies or Realtime Walkthroughs.
