Arc of fixed radius

[Swansea Jack]

Hi All

I'd like to draw an arc [i.e. a segment of a circle] of fixed radius and
length [e.g. 90 degree arc with a radius of 100mm] - is there a simple way to
do this ?

It is to connect to perpendicular lines together as part of an engineering
drawing, so it needs to be accurate. I guess there is a way to do this, but I
just can't see it !!!

I'm using Visio 2003.

Thanks

Have a look in the Drawing Tool Shapes stencil (Pro version, not
Standard) or use the shape search for 'Arc - numeric'.

Thanks Paul,

Arc.Numeric2 seems to do the trick !
