BUG: Intersect arc with axis cannot use the base point as its point
-
Describe the bug The tool intersect arc with axis (hotkey AX) asks the user for inputs of an arc, a point to use as the basepoint of the axis, and the angle of the axis. Currently the tool works correctly when a "normal" point is chosen, but if you are attempting to use the first point created on a draft block (usually just called point 'A') then the tool will not create the object. Basically the point 'A' is treated differently than all the other points on the drawing.

What's your Seamly version from Help/About? Seamly built on Jan 10, 2022
That's not what I get... Arc with A1 as center, Intersect point A2, with basepoint A as the Axis point. It should be noted that The same tool is used internally for Point Intersect Curve & Axis and Point Intersect Arc & Axis.
Also it should be noted that in the case there is no intersect point - for example if a change in measurements moves the axis off the curve / arc, then the origin is used as a place holder.
@DSCaskey - What do you think about displaying an error message when there's no longer an intersection between the base point and the arc or circle? No need to crash the pattern - just a message.
Yes. I can do that. I already did that with one of the other tools that exhibits the same behavior using the origin point.
I will do the same for any other tools that I may not be thinking of.

Closing this as a NON issue. As I pointed out if there is no intersection (regardless of Axis point used) an error message is thrown stating the origin point is being used as a place holder until the pattern is corrrected.
