Drawing a Circle
Use
the Circle object tool to draw a circle in one of two ways:
- Centre-to-edge,
with one vertex at the centre of the circle and a second on the
circumference
- Edge-to-edge,
with two vertices at opposite points on the circumference
To
draw a circle from edge-to-edge:
- In
the Graphics menu, click Add.
- Select
the Circle tool in the Object Tools window.
- Position
the cursor at the centre of the circle and press to anchor that
point on the image. Do not release the cursor.
- Drag
the cursor to establish the radius of the circle. You can continue
to adjust the size of the circle as long as you press down on the
cursor.
- Release
the cursor to anchor the second vertex.
The circle is drawn on the image.
