Is there an easy way to make a curved driveway? You would think that you can have a deflection in the driveway or draw it curved but nope, I dont see it.

Got it. I thought I could just draw a curved driveway like a curved wall or similar but had to draw it regular and then edit the edges to be able to put a radius in. Still would like to see an easier way.

You could use a spline instead of lines.

I have tried spline but either it doesnt work correctly or (more likely) I dont know how to use it.

one way to draw a curved driveway.
draw one of the curved lines with a / shape/arc (S-E-R) an easy arc to draw with for most situations
than OFFSET the one arc the width of the driveway. than "with SNAP ON"
connect the two arcs at each end with a LINE.
than go to EDIT / form solid polygon >>> left click on each of the 4 shapes and than
left click one more time which will create the SOLID POLYGON
btw. you can do this for a driveway on a flat site or best to use the driveway feature in SITE mode.
TIP: learn how to use the SITE mode especially for sites with lots of terrain / lakes / terrain, etc, etc, etc
