Hi Billl,

If you've MLP V7.5 or up, your best option is the the detail tab. Try this:
- Go to the detail tab--> select the polygon tool--> draw all the contour of the property line as accurate as possible--> select the curved segments--> adjust-->use this tool to adjust the curvature--> once the settings are OK--> convert to--> property line

Thanks. I am running MLP 10.5. I set the edit level to points and select the section that I need curved. I use the "Adjust" button and set the smoothing tension to 8. This seems to affect the section of the polygon I selected as well as neighboring sections. I had hoped to only put a curve on the section I selected. Is there a way that I can precisely recreate the dimensions on my property survey? Whereas, radius equals 943.46' & length of arc equals 115.13'. Thanks

You can create this arc in the detail tab and trace the PL. Adjust to 8 is too much, try 4

Other resource. Trace the curve in the detail tab of an empty file--> Power tools--> Export to DWG (don't worry, you don't need Autocad for this)--> "myarch.dwg"--> Open the file you are using--> Power tools--> Import DWG--> "myarch.dwg"--> Convert to--> property line

Hope this helps
