Creation method

There are two options for creating a Circle 3Pnt node.

  • The first way to create a Circle 3Pnt node is using the search list, which is opened by double left-clicking in the workspace. You can write the name of the node you need or words associated with this node.
    • circle3Pnt , c3
  • The second way is to select a Circle 3Pnt node from the menu that opens from the top left.
    • Menu > Tool > Primitive curves > Circle 3Pnt

Steps

  • Create a Circle 3Pnt node.
  • Connect the first point on the circle to the first port.
  • Connect the second point on the circle to the second port.
  • Connect the third point on the circle to the third port.

After creating the node, connect the first point on the circle to the first port, the second point on the circle to the second port, and the third point on the circle to the third port. On the output ports, you will receive the resulting circle and its radius and center point.
