    How do I draw a line to an arc so that the
    transition is uniform? In Autocad I've used
    tan/tan command.

    TIA,

    Dennis

    You can use a smart line and change from lines to arcs via the tool settings
    dialog or the accudraw bump tool settings shortcut ~ (which doesn't require
    shift). Accudraw then makes it very easy for your arc to be tangential.

    I'm using 8.1. The tangent command is one of the few
    commands that still require the "tentitive snap". Most
    of the others don't, they work like the Autocad
    snaps. I wasn't aware of this.

    thanks
