The Arc
/wiki/spaces/FrameShop8x/pages/1942694083tool allows you to draw a three-point mathematically defined
Arc in
Trace
.
The Arc is defined by three points: the initial position and the terminating position (which are called "anchors") and one separate middle point (which is called a "handle").
The shape of an Arc can be altered by moving the handle.
This is drawn with the Arc button in Trace.
Click the Arc button.
Click to place each of the three points: start, middle, and end point.
Left-click sets the point under the cursor.
Right-click snaps to the nearest point.

When drawing:
Left-Click sets the Point under the Cursor
Right-Click Snapsto the nearest Point
Bringing the design from Designer or using the /wiki/spaces/FrameShop8x/pages/1942692800 process will convert the Arcs to Splines/Curves which are easier to Tangify to make cuts smoother.
