Interface
The New Point at Arc Centres command uses the following dialog box.

Select two points | The reference model points to use as reference points for the new arc centres. 1. Press and hold the <Ctrl> key, then click two points in the list. |
Only selected items | Enable this option to limit the list of available points to only the reference model points that were selected when the command was launched. |
Radius | The radius value for the new arcs. The arcs must intersect, so this value must be at least half of the distance between the points you selected. The Measure Distance and Angle tool can be used to accurately determine the distance. See Measure Distance and Angle for more information. |
