Drawing a circle with 3 point option.

Every time I try and draw a circle which picks up 3 points using the appropriate circle option button the circle will not appear. I select 3 points and a circle starts but diaapears as soon as I select the third point. Does this funtion actually work and what am I doing wrong. I used it succesfully in autocad so am at a loss to see the problem. Thanks in advance for any advise.

Is this a general cad issue or VBA/LSP ?

My graphics card is Nvidia P2000. Will do 3D no problem so I doubt is a card issue. For clarity, I wish to draw a circle that intersects 3 points. I have tried multiple times but no joy. Can do arcs, tan tan radius etc but the 3 point circle is a no no. I thank you for your reply but can you think of any oher settings or options please?

Draw your circles and close IntelliCAD.
Then open your log file after you have made these several 3 centers circles !
May be your errors will be written in this file !

Hi, thank you once again for your most useful reply.
I did as suggested and no error recorded BUT and this is the wierd thing, I did thre sircles and then using the 3 point circle option tried to make a circle using the centres of the 3 circles previously drawn and it worked......I did nothing differently but it seemed to work. Will try again after afew logins and log outs and feed back.
Merci beaucoup, mon ami.
regards
