Circles from the Command Line

Iirc there was just a discussion about wording and modification of the Circle Center,Point tool. The old wording radius was meant to provide a point on the circumference, by click or command line, what is in fact the radius. But because of the wording users entered a single number, which is not...

Circles from the Command Line

I have no idea. Maybe center, point was considered more versatile. I have checked an old 2.03 portable version, and indeed ci there means center, radius.

Circles from the Command Line

Thank you for the reply. Not to belabor the issue, but why was the "center, radius" capability from the command line removed do you suppose? I would think that "center, radius" would be the primary or fundamental format for circles with some of the other ones added if needed. It appears that it was available in older versions.

Circles from the Command Line

There is no command line equivalent for Circle - Center, Radius. As a workaround use normal Circle (Center, Point) and specify the radius with for example @10,0.

Circles from the Command Line

I'm using version Version: 2.2.0.2 and trying to draw circles from the command line using a center location and a radius. The command line does not understand this and when I type in the center location, it never asks for a radius. I can insert a radius into the tool up in the menu bar but to do...

How do I to modify an existing fillet

A fillet is not just the ARC, the two entities connected tangential to the ARC are trimmed too. Thus changing the radius of the ARC also modifies the LINES/ARCS connected to the arc and the conditions may become invalid for the changed radius. So simply delete the ARC and apply the fillet again with the new radius.

How do I to modify an existing fillet

After I create a fillet, which works fine, I can't find a way to change the radius on the fillet after it has been created. How do I modify the fillet radius AFTER I have created a fillet? Thanks --Corey

Distance along a curve

Have you tried spline points? Thank you for all the replies, the circle method worked with some goading. I placed 12.5 radius circles along the spline with intersections being the snap option, interestingly the snap worked along the spline where the previous circle intersected with it except...

I placed 12.5 radius circles along the spline with intersections being the snap option, interestingly the snap worked along the spline where the previous circle intersected with it except for one point, which I can't work...

Distance along a curve

As a less perfect but acceptable option, how would I place a point on the curve that is in a straight line distance from the origin point? Create a 25mm straight line and move it from point to point? Beter a circle/radius with the desired distance then trace a line from center to crosing with spline, or more precise with more work, 10 circles with radius 1/10 the desired distance or 25 circles with 1/25 radius or...

Any insights or suggestions?

Hello, The process is different from AutoCAD. Length, radius, angle, etc are usually entered via Tool Option. You should check the manual and/or video tutoriel to ease the learning curve. https://librecad.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ref/tools.html https://librecad.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ref/toolbars.html#tool-options-1

Can no longer pan with middle mouse button [SOLVED]

... with the mouse. I happened to look at the point coordinates at the lower left of the window, and found that the radius of the circle was approximately TEN BILLION inches. So, I tried zooming in again without giving up quite so quickly. It took 18 turns of the scroll wheel to finally zoom in...
