beginner - circle


Recommended Posts

I am a beginner. If I have locus around a drawing, what is the best way to quickly click and put .25 circles on each one ? The radius / drag seems a bit slow.

I see you can double click on circle tool and it will bring up box, I can close box, and next click gives me one circle, but this is too many clicks. I just want to click on various points.

thanks,

bill

Draw a circle. Create a Symbol of it. Set the insertion point to the center. Hit the Insertion Options button and click the Convert to Group button.

Set the symbol you just created as active and select the Symbol Insertion tool.

Double Click on each of the Loci and you will have a circle around each one.

Instead of clicking the tool you can use the keyboard shortcuts. After inserting the first circle (double click the circle tool) tap 6 two times, press Enter and place circle on drawing.

Or, you can use the Move-by-Points tool.

Tool lock/repeat is a missing feature.
