Tangification Highlight Function

Info
The Tangification Highlight function will display the specific angle of degrees between the segments where they connect. This is extremely useful when Tangifying the arc segment connections to provide a smoother cut between the arcs. Note that this is in regards to any series of arcs creating a curve, not where two arcs come together to create an obvious corner/point in the design.

The Tangify function will smooth the connection between the Selected Arc Circuits that are below the specified Angle in the Tangify field to provide a smoother cutting transition between the arcs.

The Tangify All Circuits will smooth the connection between All of the ArcCircuits that are below the specified Angle in the Tangify field to provide a smoother cutting transition between the arcs.

Adjusting the Tangification

Select the objects you want to tangify.
Specify the desired Angle in the Tangify field.
- For this example, our segment connection is 12.6 degrees.
- Tangify will smooth the connection between selected Arc Circuits that are below the specified Angle in the Tangify field.
- Thus we need to enter an Angle above the connection Angle we want to fix.
Change the Tangify field to 13 and click Tangent.
The arc connections below this value will be made Tangent.
Our selected arcs are now Tangent.
