fix the circle, line, arc intersection problems

[brian-rwc]

My simple request for the next release after 12.5.2 is to have a reliable means of trimming circles, lines and arcs when they intersect without having crazy unpredictable results.

I've been using Vectorworks for about 5 years and have always found editing these kinds of objects unnecessarily difficult (and never had the same kind of problems with Autocad). I think it makes this software seem amatuerish when such simple procedures can have such unpredictable results.

Brian, could you give us at least one specific and replicable example? I've had these problems in the past, but not lately, except for one: it is not possible to join an arc to a line where the line is tangent to the arc at the intersection point. At least, not always possible when the join tool is used in one of the possible orders, but usually possible when you reverse which object is clicked on first.
