Use the menu symbol to select the direction of arc rotation and give
the arc a dimension.
Parameters ”end point of arc”
Z:
End point
P:
End point - polar
CY:
End point - angle as ”linear dimension”
C:
End point - angle
Center-of-arc parameters
K:
Center
CJ:
Center (angle as linear dimension - reference: unrolled
cylinder at ”reference diameter”)

Line segment in a lateral surface contour
Use the menu symbol to select the direction of the line and assign it a
dimension.
Parameters
Z:
End point of line
P:
End point of the line - polar
CY:
End point of the line - angle as ”linear dimension”
C:
End point of the line - angle
W:
Angle of the line (for reference see illustration)
WV:
Angle to the preceding element
WN:
Angle to the successor element
WV, WN:
■
The angle leads from the preceding/succeeding element
counterclockwise to the new element.
■
Arc as preceding/succeeding element: Angle to tangent.
L:
Length of line
Tangential/nontangential: Specify the transition to the
next contour element
