I draw a line and I can easily calculate the number and area of the panels.&nbsp; I have tried buffering a line then calculating the numbers I need but this requires too many steps and I only have arc editor so I can't create flat ended buffers.&nbsp; </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Any way this can be done by topology etc?</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Thu, 01 Mar 2012 18:32:18 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/draw-linear-polygons-with-a-fixed-width-and-length/m-p/159158#M8891 ChrisFox2 2012-03-01T18:32:18Z Re: draw linear polygons with a fixed width and length divisible by 4 feet https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/draw-linear-polygons-with-a-fixed-width-and-length/m-p/159159#M8892 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Have a look of the Create Fishnet tool (Data Management toolbox - Feature Class toolset):</SPAN><BR /><A href="http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisdesktop/10.0/help/index.html#/Create_Fishnet/00170000002q000000/">http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisdesktop/10.0/help/index.html#/Create_Fishnet/00170000002q000000/</A><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Hope it does what you need to do.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Tue, 13 Mar 2012 21:52:02 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/draw-linear-polygons-with-a-fixed-width-and-length/m-p/159159#M8892 DanLee 2012-03-13T21:52:02Z Re: draw linear polygons with a fixed width and length divisible by 4 feet https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/draw-linear-polygons-with-a-fixed-width-and-length/m-p/159160#M8893 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>i figured out that I can use strip index with no overlap and the window dimensions meeting my specs</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Wed, 21 Mar 2012 14:13:50 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/draw-linear-polygons-with-a-fixed-width-and-length/m-p/159160#M8893 ChrisFox2 2012-03-21T14:13:50Z
