[plugin] Circle Intersect

Thanks for sharing! Could it work regardless of context?
The reason I added that restriction is that otherwise it is not clear what context should receive the guide points.

no-brainer: the current one.

I may not have explained well... Contrary to the GUI, there is a quirk in the API that lets you select arcs or edges in contexts that are not currently open for edit (!). So, you could have Group1 open for edit, select an arc in Group 2, and a second arc from Group 3. Two bad things would result: first, the extension logic would become more complex because coordinates would have to be transformed before the intersections could be calculated, second, there would be three contexts involved leaving it unclear which one should receive the guide points. I took the simplistic view that one should not be seeking intersections between things from different contexts. If that is not workable, please let me know.

Hello,
Many thanks for that plugin !
Seems to have an issue with Fredo6's !AdditionalPluginsFolders...
I took a look and I believe I know how to address that issue. I'm waiting a bit to see whether others come up with bugs or suggestions, and then I'll release a revision that should fix it.

PS Tig has made True Tangents who has True intersections inside!
Natural intersection with maximum of segments circles (without plugin)
It seems you are correct - I didn't guess based on the name. That plugin is pretty old and TIG hasn't gotten around to updating it to current coding conventions, though it still works. He operates on entities that you select using the selection tool, whereas mine works with what you click while the tool is active. Difference in workflow. Your call which way you prefer.

Great news ! Wait and see...

Hello,
Any new release to fix the issue with Fredo6's !AdditionalPluginsFolders ?
Many thanks !
-
I uploaded version 1.1 to the plugin store. I think it should work ok with the additional plugins folders. Please let me know if you encounter problems.

It seems I have some issue with the cursor...

Hello,
it seems working fine !
Another issue : The selection icon appears 10 or 15 times too large...
-
Oops! Gilles, somehow the cursor image I saved for pre-2016 versions of SU wasn't scaled down properly. If you replace the cursor_intersect_cursor.png file in folder SB_circle_intersect with the attached version I think it should work correctly. Sorry about that!
-
Thanks.

For anyone else who sees this, I just uploaded the corrected version to the plugin store. Sorry about the error!
