Dims/Notes |
Multiple geometric constraint tools share the same position on the tool set. Click and hold the mouse on the visible tool to open the Pop-out tools list and select the desired tool.
Constrain a circle, arc, or line to be tangent to another circle or arc. If one object is moved, the other constrained object adjusts to maintain the tangency. The objects do not need to be tangent to one another when you place the constraint; the first object moves to become tangent to the second.
To constrain a circle, arc or line to be tangent to a circle or arc:
Click the tool.
Click the circle or arc to constrain.
Click the circle, arc, or line to be constrained.
A green tangent constraint is drawn at the tangent point of the two objects.
