Sectors

Use the Sector tool to create a sector of a circle, consisting of an arc connected to a center point, by specifying the radius and the angle in degrees. The mouse pointer can be used, or numbers can be input directly in the Tool Parameters.

Usage

1. In CAD Mode, select Sector from the Toolbox's CAD creation tools.
   
2. Drag in the Figure Window to specify the radius of the sector. The starting point of the drag becomes the center point, and the distance dragged becomes the radius.
   
3. Drag again to specify the angle of the arc. Alternatively, enter the angle in degrees in the Tool Parameters.
   

Tool Parameters

Reference Plane

The plane on which the disk is created.

When using the mouse, the plane used for the initial drag becomes the reference plane.

Center

The XYZ coordinates of the center of the sector.

End Point

The XYZ coordinates of the first end point of the sector's arc.

Angle

The angle of the sector in degrees.

Closed

Joins the center with both end points, creating a closed sector. Deselect this option to create an arc instead.

Apply

Confirms the sector creation.
