- 3 ENTS allows you to create a circle tangent to three
- selected entities.
-
- Select the first tangent entity, near the point of
- tangency. If necessary, you can cancel the selection
- by choosing the BACK-UP option and selecting another
- entity.
-
- Select the second tangent entity.
-
- Select the third tangent entity, near the point of
- tangency. You can cancel the selection by choosing the
- BACK-UP option and selecting another entity.
-
- If a tangent circle cannot be created (for example,
- because the selected entities are not coplanar and you are
- in 3-D construction mode), an error message is displayed.
- You are prompted to press <Enter> and to select a
- different entity as the first tangent entity.
-
- In 2-D construction mode, the circle is created in the
- construction view, at the depth that is active when the
- third tangent entity is selected.
-
- In 3-D construction mode, the circle is created in the
- plane of the selected entities.
