Hi, I wanted this for the same reason as in this post: Segment curve from intersection of two curves - #3 by Grace . Using the tool “point intersection curves” does define the point but you can’t use…

Another edge case where there are multiple points of intersection. Should we ask the user to choose ‘1st intersection point’, ‘2nd intersection point’, ‘3rd intersection point’,… ‘nth intersection po…

[kuva] Sue: Please test this build here: Yay! Looks good with my experiments! [kuva] Sue: Should we improve the definition of ‘intersection’ to exclude the endpoints if a non-endpoint inte…

[kuva] Pneumarian: As opposed to the current “Vertical correction”, “Horizontal correction” Yeah there’s no way to select the other intersection point: [image]

[kuva] Pneumarian: ETA: Actually, we’d have to figure out what would happen if one of the intersections were to wander off. Like this…? [arc1] [arc2] In this case by moving the arcs away the …

[kuva] Sue: Please test this build here: Just checking - I assume this build was BEFORE you fixed the unicode issue or from the user’s fork?

[kuva] Douglas: Like this…? That too. Actually, I was thinking more of when there would be multiple crossings, & it’s the furthest intersection which is pointed, but then it ends up getting str…

The default is to yoink :slight_smile: to the first intersection even if its an endpoint. Which is actually what it should do. The user should then be able to go into options and select from a list of…

wait I was looking at Intersect Curves tool. So theres a separate issue with the Intersecting Arc tool when an arc changes and there’s no longer an intersection point? Not sure there’s a fix for this …

[kuva] Sue: The user should then be able to go into options and select from a list of the 1st, 2nd, …nth intersection points. Just a reminder… once you start changing the option of which point …

[kuva] Sue: So theres a separate issue with the Intersecting Arc tool when an arc changes and there’s no longer an intersection point? Didn’t look at that… was using the point of intersection o…

OK there’s now a separate discussion thread for the Intersect Arcs tool,
