Hi and thank you.

I meant it would be good if I could draw a curve and then have it tangent to both the desired point of the line and the circle.

I love those tricks- mirroring the circle and then draw the Circle Tan- however, I think if there was a method with which user/s could create such curve without applying those tricks that would be awesome. :)

Yes! I would like to know from where BurrMan took that number?

suspiciously resembling Pi!

hi Psygorn,

It's not really good for something that is used very rarely to have a special command for it because that's how the UI gets very bloated and unwieldy over time.

So it would need to fit in to an existing command. Currently I think it might be problematic to try and fit this into the regular circle/arc tangent command because there isn't currently a way in the command to specify tangent to a curve and also through a point on the same curve.

- Michael
