The center has been selected, dragging to set the radius‎ The center and start angle have been selected, dragging to set end angle‎

How to use

  • Pick points on an empty area of the 3D view, or on an existing object (auto constraints must be active in TaskView).
  • Pressing ESC or clicking the right mouse button cancels the function.
