The Circle command permits you to draw a circle entity, based on:
- A center point and specified radius
- Two points that define the diameter
- Three points through which the circle must pass
Options
-3P/Pick point or point ID
- 3P: Specify this option if you want the circle to pass through 3 points.
- Pick point or point ID: Indicate a point; the prompt will change to:
Rad/<Second Point>- Rad: Indicate the desired radius.
- Second Point: Indicate the second point that will be used to determine the diameter.
Note: Once drawn, the circle is considered a polyline and can be removed with the Erase command.
Note: During the circle creation process, you can access other common controls; most notably the various Map Screen View Controls and Entity Snaps.
