Hello everyone,

How to make a circle with the centre point (0,0) and radius 10mm in Origin?

Thank you.

Draw the circle with the Circle Tool and set size and position from the script window. circle.x and circle.y are the axes X Y coordinates at the center. circle.dx and circle.dy are width and height in axes units. circle.width and circle.height are width and height in layer units. (Format> Layer> Size/Speed tab)

In order to position the circle according to graph coordinates you should draw it on a graph??

OK, I have finished with the circle.
But if I only need a arc of the circle, for example: 1/4 from the circle. How can I delete the part which I do not need?

Thank you!

You can't delete part of a circle but you can cover up the parts you don't want with other figures, e.g., rectangles.
