How do I extend an arc in XyzPilot?

Use Extend/A,to,L or Extend/A,to,C to extend an arc to meet a line or circle boundary. Start/End selector specifies which endpoint to extend.

Full Answer

Two arc extend operators: Extend/A,to,L (extend arc to line) and Extend/A,to,C (extend arc to circle). The arc is extended along its circumference until it meets the boundary.

XyzPilot Example
