15-8. Autocad Drawing Circle Amongst The Mouse

How to depict a circle using a mouse inwards AutoCAD stride past times step

If yous wish to depict a circle amongst a radius or diameter (radius or diameter), so yous postulate to run the CIRCLE. (this is help for AutoCAD tangent to the circle)
On the toolbar, click DRAW CIRCLE button. Or amongst a text bill of fare DRAW => CIRCLE => in addition to select the alternative of drawing a circle.
I recommend that yous run a text menu, because yous convey to a greater extent than options. Refer to the Command Line prompt, every bit it may seem a asking for additional elements.


CIRCLE ascendance has vi options for drawing circles.

The advert itself tells us subcommand parameters past times which nosotros tin depict a circle.

Draw a circle past times Center - Radius

Draw a circle amongst middle indicate in addition to radius are made so yous ready the middle indicate of the circle inwards the drawing in addition to so yous click on a place inwards the drawing, (or larn into the radius of the Command Line)

When yous click on a ascendance in addition to so showtime click on the desktop inwards the ascendance line of piece of job prompt appears clause that yous tin use. In this instance nosotros depict amongst the mouse in addition to we'll click somewhere on the desktop of your alternative in addition to hence nosotros define Radius (radius).

Command:
Command: _circle Specify middle indicate for circle or [3P/2P/Ttr (tan tan radius)]:
Specify radius of circle or [Diameter]: [click your mouse in addition to so nosotros ready the Radius]

Also if yous wish to larn into Radius (radius) to produce directly later on the showtime click

Command: _circle Specify middle indicate for circle or [3P/2P/Ttr (tan tan radius)]:
Specify radius of circle or [Diameter] <50.0000>: 100 [size radius (radius)]

Draw a circle using CENTER - DIAMETER

If later on the showtime click yous type a missive of the alphabet (D) Diameter clause, pregnant that inwards the adjacent stride is to larn into the diameter of the circle.

Command: _circle Specify middle indicate for circle or [3P/2P/Ttr (tan tan radius)]:
Specify radius of circle or [Diameter] <90.7457>: D
Specify diameter of circle <181.4913>: 200

Draw a circle amongst the 2 Points

Draw a circle amongst the mouse using the 2 points is done past times clicking showtime click to ready tangent to the circle in addition to so motility the mouse to closed to other the contrary indicate in addition to click on the desired location. If nosotros wish later on the showtime click, nosotros tin write Diameter dimension circle.

Draw a circle amongst iii Points

I subcommand advert says it all in addition to here's the pic below

Draw a circle using the TAN - TAN - RADIUS (tangent - tangent - radius)

This sub-command of CIRCLE commands tin endure used inwards a agency to create upwards one's heed which lines volition all endure touched past times the tangent of the circle. (AutoCAD tangent to the circle)

Draw a circle using the TAN - TAN - TAN (tangent - tangent - tangent)

Use this clause if yous wish to position a circle within a character, polygon, etc. (or, for example: the to a greater extent than lines). When yous are on a line of piece of job of sight appears to Tangent so click the mouse (AutoCAD tangent to the circle)

The effect is shown below

DONUT (fill circle)

If yous wish to depict a circle inwards a circle amongst it to endure filled past times the outer border yous postulate to run the DONUT. You postulate to run the Command Line prompt. After the showtime click is required to larn into the inner circle Diameter + larn into in addition to so the external diameter of the circle + enter, yous at nowadays appeared the outline of a circle in addition to all yous postulate is to click at a indicate where yous wish to house the drawing.

Command: _donut
Specify within diameter of donut <50.0000>: 50
Specify exterior diameter of donut <90.0000>: 90
Specify middle of donut or <exit>:

Note the pic below. After run a depict DONUT command, or closed to other ascendance which uses the same filling tin endure avoided amongst the FILL command (ON/OFF). It includes a create amount OFF turns off the fill. After using the FILL ascendance is necessary to run the REGEN command (RE) to the picture drawing regenerates.

This ascendance tin also endure used inwards drawing a Polyline amongst a width (which appears every bit a filled line)
NOTE: The circle has iv magnetic necktie points are called Quadrant. See the pic below.
