Method
|
Sets the method by which the circle is placed.
- Center — position
by center.
- Edge — position by
three data points on the circumference.
- Diameter — position
by diameter's endpoints.
|
Area
|
Active Area — Solid or Hole.
|
Fill Type
|
Active Fill Type — None (no fill), Opaque (filled
with Active Color), or Outlined (filled with Fill Color).
|
Fill Color
|
Sets the color and optional gradient with which the
circle is filled.
- If Fill Type is
Opaque, the Active Color.
- If Fill Type is
Outlined, the fill color can be different from the Active Color.
|
Diameter
|
If on, sets the diameter, in
working units (if Method is set to Center
or Edge). To instead set the radius, choose Radius from the adjacent option
menu.

drop-down along with options to create a new variable and a new expression.

is already assigned to the value.

Solution
|
If on, and there is more than one possibility for
the next data point, lets you choose a solution from the drop-down menu.
- Nearest — The
nearest solution to the cursor is selected.

Key-in settings
|
Several key-ins can be used to control how the tool
works:
CONSGEOM SET SHOWALTSOLUTIONS
<OFF | ON> — If set to ON (the default), and a constraint snap
is used, the tool displays all possible sizes and orientations of the element
that would satisfy the snap. The proposed element nearest the pointer location
is shown in normal symbology, while other possibilities are shown as dashed in
muted color.
CONSGEOM SET SHOWFEASIBLEREGION
<OFF | ON> — If set to ON (the default), a dashed red line or
circle shows where the pointer can move. If it moves outside the allowable
area, a heavy line weight red X displays, indicating that the circle cannot be
completed at this location.
