Intersection of Offset Segments Snap
Use this command to calculate the intersection of offsets from two selected line or arc segments. From the end of the segment closest to where it was picked, looking to the other end, positive offsets are to the right and negative offsets are to the left of the segment.
Intersection of Offset Segments Snap can be used in these controls:
To use an Intersection of Offset Segments Snap:
- While in a coordinate control, right-click in a graphic view, and select Intersection > Intersection of Offset Segments Snap from the context menu. The Intersection of Offset Segments Snap command pane displays.
- Pick a line or arc segment in the view. The segment is recorded in the Line segment 1 box.
- Pick a point offset from the line, or type a value in the Offset 1 box. For the offsets, you can enter a negative or positive offset distance from the line.
- Pick a second line or arc segment. The segment is recorded in the Line segment 2 box.
- Pick a point offset from the second line, or type a value in the Offset 2 box. You can enter a negative or positive offset distance from the line. The coordinate is recorded, and the command pane returns to the previous command.
