Point of Intersection

Point snap methods

Point of intersection finds the point of intersection of two elements like lines, circles, and ellipses. This tool also finds virtual points of intersection between elements obtained by extending the elements.

To find the point of intersection of two elements

1. After activating a design tool, click Point of intersection on the shortcut menu.
2. Click the two elements.

   

   (1) 1. Element
   (2) 2. Element
   (A) Point of intersection determined by program

Note:

If you want to address composite elements (e.g., a polyline) as a whole, click Whole.

The points of intersection cannot be computed at points of transition from circular spirals to straight spirals.
