Draw a sphere tangent to the other 2 sphere, cannot get the tangent point.
Anyone know how to do it by tangent? Or it's not possible, then what is the tangent option for?

Re: Draw Sphere by Tangent
You'll probably have to construct the plane defined by the three centre points.

Do you see this option. sphere--->/Ttr]:Originally Posted by jack_fs2002
Creates the sphere with a specified radius tangent to two objects and two objects are in 2D.
Just a though.
Re: Draw Sphere by Tangent
This mean that sphere only can tangent to 2D objects, but not 3D sphere?
Re: Draw Sphere by Tangent
That's what it says in Help/Sphere.
The problem is, as you have found, that you can't pick a tangent point on a spherical surface.
That's why I said construct the plane defined by the three centres.
