chewy Posted October 1, 2009 Posted October 1, 2009 Hi guys, I managed to draw elliptical arc by using command, 1)'el'-ellipse 2)'a' - arc 3) 'i' - isocircle I researched on it. I think it's call tangent on vertex if I have a isometric square. 1)Is there other methods I can my isometric arc? I know there's one feature, I saw it on the autocad help, it's like ask you to enter 5 different point,figures, and I ended up always drawing an arc of 3/4 circle rather an arc of 1/4 circle. 2)Which part of the corrections needed? And is it the right approach drawing isometric arc, just that I messed up some figures along the way? Thanks Quote
29xthefun Posted October 1, 2009 Posted October 1, 2009 for a 1/4 arc type Arc then C for Centre, if you want a 1/4 arc from 180 degree to 360 degree. Think of it to be like a clock as in the start is 6 and the end is 3. Start is the higest number and the end is the lower number. Hope this helps. Quote
chewy Posted October 7, 2009 Author Posted October 7, 2009 What do you mean by from 180 degree to 360 degree? As in, from e left to top to right? Quote
29xthefun Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 Oh yeah that is wrong should be 270 degree to 360, silly me. Quote

Thanks This might be your problem, remember that AutoCAD draws arcs and circles in counter clockwise direction so you have to pick your start and end points with that in mind. Quote
