Welcome

Are there any Carlson commands that will calculate an arc (or TP, CP, IP
points) if I only have a two lines and an tangent distance?
What if for some strange reason I only have a two lines and an arc length -
is there a command to make an arc?

The AutoCAD fillet command only works with a radius.

Thanks in advance

Construct IP,TP and CP and then:
Draw>Arc>Start,Center,End

We're talking SurvCADD XML R2 right? (too many newsgroup just want to
make sure I'm answering in the correct one)
try using curvecalc at the command line or using the pulldowns in COGO,
Design,Curves,Curve Calc..

this sounds like it should do all that you want

Thanks Cad Dept - that's exactly it.
The command "2 Tangents, Tangent Length" - is what I didn't see before.
