Working more on my property sketch, the northern boundary is defined by arcs of three circles of different radius.

![4791BB14-24FE-4AC8-882F-7F85DE607CBE](https://cdck-file-uploads-us1.s3.dualstack.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/flex002/uploads/shapr3d/original/2X/4/4efe74d608706a5da896a464c3b4a87f3023ca5f.jpeg)

Easy enough to sketch, but the artifacts of the center of the circles remain and I don’t want to see these in the sketch. (one circle center is off screen to the top). They are somewhat unsightly and clutter my sketch.

![AFC96C92-ED0B-4CF4-9A94-C0B25B157400](https://cdck-file-uploads-us1.s3.dualstack.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/flex002/uploads/shapr3d/original/2X/c/cf57f750f543d9343649d577d75fba8e187f1654.jpeg)

Is there anything that I can do? Can an arc be disassociated from its originating circle?

Thanks,

Tommy

No, you can’t do that.

A Hide capability would be nice.

Alternatively I can try to trace over them with a hand drawn curve and delete the circle arcs?

Thanks,
