Description
This macro creates a circle on 3 selected points in the space. The points can be objects such as cubes, cylinder, then selected coordinates will be the centre of these forms.
Usage
Select 3 points, or forms in the 3D view and run the macro.
If the shape is a line, the coordinate will be the center of the line.
Limits
The order of selection of fear forms influencing the AXIS angle and reverse the inclination of the circle. In this case, reverse or change the order of selection of the shapes.
The coordinates X, Y, Z of value 0 or alignment not allowing not calculating, can return a division by zero error, and translated as "The three points are aligned"
