nestly Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Circle > 3P (3point) perhaps? http://screencast.com/t/4f977Lz0S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nestly Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Use the CIRCLE command, with the 3P (3point) option, and a TANgent OSnap to create the red circle in the following screencap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack_O'neill Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Try this. Start the circle command, then enter 3p. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack_O'neill Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Nestly, you were quicker on the "draw" than me....lol...get it...the "draw"...ok, so it wasn't all that funny. I used midpoints and near instead of tangent but it did the same thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock er Posted February 20, 2011 Author Share Posted February 20, 2011 Ok... I drew it...Thx for Nestly and Jack... Thx all guys...^.^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nestly Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Glad to help, Rock er Well, Jack, I had a headstart since I was already subscribed to the thread. (wink) I'm not sure about the MidPoint option, inner circle would only be tangent to the other 3 objects at one very specific included angle, right?

[ATTACH]26293[/ATTACH] You're right, midpoint wont' work all the time. curious that I just happened to throw an angle on there that did work. hmmm....tangent is by far the better option. gotta overlook me this morning, under the influence of decongestants.
