The Tangify tool function smooths the connection between selected Arc Circuits containing any angles below the specified degree in the Tangent Threshold field.
This will create a seamless transition between arcs for smoother cuts.
In comparison, the Tangify All Circuits function smooths the connection between all Arc Circuits of the design containing any angles below the specified degree in the Tangent Threshold field.

Select the objects you want to tangify.
Specify the desired Angle in the Tangify field.
Any selected Angles below this value will be made Tangent.
Click the Tangify button.
The connection between the selected Arcs/Curves will now be made Tangent.
The Arc/wiki/spaces/FrameShop8x/pages/1942694083tool allows you to draw a three-point mathematically defined Arc in Trace.
