*First point: First point of the line to extend. It's the '''second''' point you selected
*Second point: Second point of the line to extend. It's the '''third''' point you selected
*Third point: Starting point of a virtual line with your given length. It's the '''first''' point you selected
*Lenght: You can define a fixed lenght or use formulas for adaptive / calculated values.
*Attributes: Specify the color, linetype and lineweight of the new node

|This tool is similar to above mentioned tool '''Point - Length to Line'''.
First select to points of a line to create a virtuel axis. Than select the centerpoint of a circle and define the radius. A new node will be created at the crosspoint of the axis and the radius.
First select a starting point from which your length will be measured. Than select two points of a line. The new node will be created on the extention of your selected line.

|'''Important note:'''If the radius is to small no point will be created. This could break your design if you rely on the created node for further tool.

*Name: Name of the new node
*Center of arc: Center point of arc. The radius will start from this point. It's the '''third''' point you selected
*1st line point: Starting point of the line to extend. It's the '''first''' point you selected
*2nd line point: Endpoint of the line to extend. It's the '''second''' point you selected
*Radius: You can define a fixed lenght or use formulas for adaptive / calculated values.
*Attributes: Specify the color, linetype and lineweight of the new node

Select the first and second points of the axis line (in this case, point A10 and A11 on the line indicating the shoulder tip height). Then select the point at the centre of the radius that you wish to measure out from (in this case, A9 - the edge of the neck). The box pops up and you may enter the length of the line from A9 to the new point (A12) that you require (shoulder width + the dart width). You may draw in a line from point A9 to A12 which will equal length that you entered.
