Relationships cannot be maintained in certain cases, as in the following example.

  1. On the Draw toolbar, select Arc by 3 Points Arc by 3 Points.

  2. Select where you want the sweep of the arc to begin.

  3. Move the pointer to a position where the software recognizes a point on the element relationship with a line on the drawing sheet.

  4. When the Point On relationship indicator is displayed at the pointer, select to define the second input point for the arc.

  5. Move the pointer past the line and select. The position of this input point defines it as the end of the sweep, making the point in the middle a key point that cannot have relationships. The software recognizes this, and does not maintain the point on element relationship.

If the third input point for the arc had been between the first two points, then it would have been interpreted as the arc midpoint, making the second input point one end of the arc sweep. In this case, the point would have been constrainable, and the software would have maintained the point on element relationship.
