This command allows a segment to be transformed into a circle arc.

 

Creation Stages / Use:

 

Click the icon or select the 2D sketch > Deformation... from the drop-down menu. In a Draft document, select the Sketch > deformation... from the drop-down menu.

 

This command does not have a dialog panel, select the line to be transformed into a circle and move the cursor keeping the left mouse button pressed down then release the button when the desired circle arc is obtained.

 

 

This command does not allow the reverse transformation to be made (transformation of an arc into a line).

Depending on the constraints applied on the segment, deformation is not always possible, for example, it is not possible to deform a segment with an alignment constraint.
