Tangent

3-D Standard > HCM >  Coinc.. > Tangent

With the Tangent constraint, you can make any curved geometry join any other curved geometry, a straight line or a plane.

Also bear in mind again here that a cylinder is regarded as unbounded. This means that a line, for example, does not necessarily have to lie between the two top surfaces of the cylinder in order to lie tangentially to the cylinder.

Proceed as follows:

Identify as Geometries the two geometry elements, one after the other.

The other control elements are described in the topic Dimensional and Positional Constraints.
