Description

Draws an octagon inscribed in a construction geometry circle. When starting the tool, the mouse pointer changes to a white cross with a red hexagon icon. The coordinates of the pointer are shown beside it in blue in real time.

How to use

  • After pressing the Create octagon button, click once to set the center, then move the mouse and click a second time to set one of the vertices.
  • Pressing ESC or clicking the right mouse button cancels the function.

When editing the sketch the circumscribed circle is visible, when you close the sketch is hidden.
