Arc


The Arc draws a portion of an oval. First the underlying oval is drawn. Then the user must click and drag to set the first endpoint of the arc. A line is drawn from the center of the oval to the position of the cursor for reference. Next the other endpoint of the arc is chosen by clicking and dragging until the desired arc is drawn. The underlying oval is shown greyed out for reference. When the arc is finished, the reference lines will disappear, leaving only the arc. The arc will be drawn in the current foreground color.

If the control key is held down while drawing, the oval will be constrained to be a circle.

If the shift key is held down while creating the underlying oval, the Arc's size and position will be relative to the current size of the Canvas. Later resizing of the Canvas will result in the shifting of the size and position of the arc.

The control and shift keys may be used simultaneously.
