Description
The 2 Point Curves command can be considered to be a subset of the more general Draw Curves
command. Here you can create linear curves defined by only two points very quickly. This efficiency is due to an automatic Apply that occurs
following every second point placement. Therefore all you have to do is define consecutive pairs of points and with each second point placement a new
connector or database curve is defined.
The 2 Point Curves panel provides a reduced set of commands relative to the more general Draw Curves command.
Select Create, 2 Point Curves. Then define consecutive pairs of points for each new curve to be created. When done creating 2 Point Curves, click OK to close
the panel.
At the top of the 2 Point Curves panel you can find the Entity Type frame with options to define the type of curve to be created:
Connector (
), Database (
),
or Source (
).
Below the Entity Type frame, we present the standard options to explicitly specify the points that will define the curve being created:
Unique to the 2 Point Curves command is the option to either Delete Last Point or Delete Last Curve depending on which point
definition you are on. On the first point defined, the command button provides the Delete Last Point option. After the second point and new curve are
defined, the command button provides the Delete Last Curve option. Note that the Delete key on your keyboard can be used as a shortcut for
these two deletion options.
