Specifying the radius of a two points arc

One thing I see that many users seem to ignore is that the two points Arc Tool offers the possibility of specifying the radius instead of the bulge. Simply add the letter “r” (without the quotes) after the number that you enter in the Dimension Window.

This is not shown in the status bar when drawing such an arc. It would be nice to have such an indication. It is however available in the help.

And note that you can change your mind from entering radii or bulges vice versa. (just like with the circle tool, sides <>radii)

Thank you!
