Curve between two points

Trying to add a curve between two points

Draw # 3 is what I have now. I want to add the curve line between two vectors shown in Draw #2 . I have a circle in Draw # 1 is there any way to cut out what the purple arrows are pointing to and keep what the red arrows are pointing to?

For Randy

Given 2 Vectors:

Select both Vectors and click the “Trim Vector Tool”

Blue Dots will appear where the Vectors intersect:

Click on the Section of Vector you want removed:


Click OK twice in the pop-up and in the upper-left corner.

Now you have two vectors that are not “closed”:

Next select both “Open” vectors and then select the “Join Vectors Tool”

That’s it.

Given the shape:

If one has a circle drawn in so as to touch those two points:

Then the easiest way to address this is to select the original geometry:

close it using Join Vectors

Yes

Add the circle to the selection:

and use Trim Vectors to remove what is not wanted:

Ok

Join Vectors

Yes

Alternately, this may be done using the Curve tool:

Done

Then use Node Editing to adjust:

Probably a 3rd node would be needed for an exact fit.
