5.1.2    Polygon Element

The  button in the 2D Window toolbar and Draw->Element->Circle/polygon command from 2D Window menu indicate manual drawing of a circle or polygon element.

Click the left mouse button two times to mark its centre and radius or by entering the coordinates from the Keyboard Entry dialogue. The element is being introduced on the current level, with the current height and with current medium. To change current height, level and medium settings please use Define Level dialogue. The circle is approximated by a regular polygon with the number of sides (sectors) defined by the user. The choice of the number of sectors gives the Circle/Arc Sectors dialogue.
