Circle

Once you have selected the circle option, you will be able to draw circles until you either dismiss the cursor from drawing back to normal canvas cursor operation or select another draw option.

The circle will be drawn with the Line Type, Line Width, Patterns, and Color Table selections that are active in the Attributes Toolbar. These can be changed before drawing the circle or after.

For more information on the appearance, see the chapter "Format Options".

How to

  1. Click on Draw in the Main Menu with the left-most mouse button.
  2. Click on Circle with the left-most mouse button.
  3. Move the cursor onto the canvas. The cursor will look like a pencil.
  4. To start drawing the circle, move the cursor to the center of the circle and click the left-most mouse button and drag to the desired radius length.
  5. To stop drawing the circle, release the left-most mouse button.
  6. (Optional) To draw another circle, go to step 4.
