Allow tangents on curves/arcs/lines without coincident endpoints (Was: "Arc of circle tangential to line segment kind of works but is broken") #937

  • solvespace from master @ 7795b0b
  • Debian testing, amd64
  • gcc 10.2.1

So apparently, one is supposed to have a line segment that shares the end point with end of an arc, to make tangential constraint work.

But in fact solvespace allows right now to create a tangential constrain without that limtiation. One can for example do a tangential constrain of arc end with any line segment, or with a line segment that has end of an arc on line, but not on end of a segment. It still shows error message, but still creates a constrain and it works.

However, trying to create two such constrains (one for each end of an arc), create a wrong constraints.
