Modifying circles and ellipses directly

In the course of continuous development of direct object modification, Allplan 2014-1 provides advanced modification options for circles, ellipses and design entities derived therefrom: now you can directly modify all the parameters relevant to the geometry of circular design entities, such as radius, start and end points of an arc, position and proportions, arc length, rise and so on.

There are two decisive factors:

• The handle you use after you have selected a circle or an arc,

  and

• The subsequent setting on the context toolbar.
