Circle: 3 Points
Click Create > Circle and choose 3 Points in the drop-down menu.
3 Points constructs a circle using three points anywhere on the circumference of the circle. The points may be in any order.
-
Select 3 Points.
-
Click the first point through which the circumference must pass.
-
Click the second point through which the circumference must pass. As you move the cursor around you will now see a circle which is attached to the cursor and fixed to the first two points you clicked.
- Click a position for the third point on the circumference. This point determines the size and the location of the circle.
To finish any of the Geometry 2D commands, press the Esc (escape) key or select another command. The use of Esc discards any constructions still in progress.
When you select any create circle commands, the cursor changes to an arrow with a spanner beside it (indicating a toolbox operation). This means the command is still active, you can continue drawing more items of the same type without re-selecting the command.
