titleLine Definition

The Line/wiki/spaces/FrameShop8x/pages/1942694019tool in Trace will draw a Two-Point Line. 

The Line is defined by two points: Initial Position (called an Anchor) and the Terminating Position (called an Anchor).

After it is drawn, a third point in the Center will be displayed, which can be moved to alter the line into an /wiki/spaces/FrameShop8x/pages/1942509136.

titleArc Definition

The Arc tool allows you to draw athree-point mathematically defined arc in the Trace software.

The /wiki/spaces/FrameShop8x/pages/1942694083 has three points: Initial Position (called an Anchor), Middle Point (called a Handle) which can be moved to change the shape of the Arc, and Terminating Position (called an Anchor).

The /wiki/spaces/FrameShop8x/pages/1942692800 process will convert the Arcs to Splines which are easier to tangify to make cuts smoother.
