how to creat an arc go through apoint and tangent to two arc

[John Summers]

I couldn't get it to work in X2 or X3, but arc tangent to 3 entities (2 arcs and a point) works OK in V9.

you might use "tangent point" to creat new arcs. take one arc and the point at a time, then you should get the new arc you want.

Try create arc 3 points.

 

Select the point then in the function ribbon bar is an icon for tangent.

 

Select the tangent icon and pick the 2 arcs

Use Create/Arc/3 point Arc. Click the 'Tangent' button while selecting arcs, click it off for points.

Has any one noticed an issue with creating an arc tanget to 3 lines? If I draw 3 lines and then go directly to Create Arc Tanget, pick either one of the icons for creating an arc tanget to three lines it works fine, on the other hand if i try and create and arc to lines that are already in the screen,it will not create an arc. The lines are on the same plane and they are lines and not splines.

I have tried it here by creating 3 lines then saving and closing MC and then opening the file , Works good here, but this was also on beta of X3-Mu1 I will try later on my other box of X3 stand alone.
