Method |
Sets the method by which the circle is placed.
- Center — position by center.
- Edge — position by three data points on the circumference.
- Diameter — position by diameter's endpoints.
|
Area |
Active Area — Solid or Hole. |
Fill Type |
Active Fill Type — None (no fill), Opaque (filled with Active Color), or Outlined (filled with Fill Color). |
Fill Color |
Sets the color and optional gradient with which the circle is filled.
- If Fill Type is Opaque, the Active Color.

Key-in settings |
Several key-ins can be used to control how the tool works: CONSGEOM SET SHOWALTSOLUTIONS <OFF | ON> — If set to ON (the default), and a constraint snap is used, the tool displays all possible sizes and orientations of the element that would satisfy the snap. The proposed element nearest the pointer location is shown in normal symbology, while other possibilities are shown as dashed in muted color.
CONSGEOM SET SHOWFEASIBLEREGION <OFF | ON> — If set to ON (the default), a dashed red line or circle shows where the pointer can move. If it moves outside the allowable area, a heavy line weight red X displays, indicating that the circle cannot be completed at this location.
