problem with tics
in this case - mathema-tics
my question is this: how do i convert the length of a straight line into a diameter of a tube? i know that with Pi you can calculate the length of the diameter is it the other way around with my question? sort of reversed calculation as i am mathematicly challenged i wonder if you can help me bottom line is i want to convert length of a straight line of a fuselage part to a diameter of a tube so i can get one that is closest in size

Just divide your length by Pi to give you the diameter, e.g. l/Pi = D

And the radius is half the diameter. Most vector drawing software use the radius as the size property of circles.

15/Pi=4,77 i.e. 15 cms length gives me 4,77 cms in diameter?
