After calling, and calling, and still waiting on a promised return call, a tech told me that this simple shape can not be drawn with V22.


All I need is two .25" Radii, 6.217" from center to center. The first center is at X0 Y0, the second is at X6.217 Y0. Then, I need a 16" radius tangent to both plus the same radius on the bottom. It will look like an elongated ellipse.

It is not an ellipse because it has a constant radius. The third tech finally told me that it could not be drawn unless I knew the exact coordinates. I told him that his way defeated the purpose of CAD software.

I do know the coordinates. It takes about five seconds to draw in Dolphin CAD/CAM. It's a shame that I need another program to make this one work...

I ask if I could change the snap coordinates. I was told that I can not do that in V22. Apparently, 'Arc Snap' is always a center snap, not a tangent snap or intersection snap.

Can this shape be drawn with the above information?
