The Circle Attributes window is used to define or to modify the location, size, layer, and appearance for map or diagram circles. This window is displayed when you edit an existing circle or insert a new circle into a map or diagram.
Appearance Options
- Radius: The circle radius is listed in your map or diagram coordinates. You can make the circle larger or smaller by increasing or decreasing this value. (Circle size can also be changed by clicking and dragging on the plot window itself; see Editing Graphics for details.)
- Filled: If checked, the circle will be displayed with a solid fill. You can select the fill color by clicking on the color box to the right of the check-box.
- Perimeter: If checked the circle's perimeter will be displayed. Click on the line box to the right of the check-box to select the color, line style and line thickness for the perimeter line.
Location Options
- Layer: Use this setting to select the layer to which the circle is to be associated. See Working with Layers for more information.
- Origin: The X (Easting) and Y (Northing) coordinates define the map location at the center of the circle.
- Circle location can also be changed by clicking and dragging on the plot window itself; see Editing Graphics for details.
General Options
- Visible: Insert a check in this box for the circle to be visible in the drawing or map. Remove the check-mark to hide the circle.
