Parameters ---------- points: list of Base::Vector3 A list that must be three points. placement: Base::Placement, optional It is adjusted to match the geometry of the created edge. The Z axis of the adjusted placement will be parallel to the (negative) edge axis. Its Base will match the edge center. face: bool, optional It defaults to `False`. If it is `True` it will create a face in the closed arc. Otherwise only the circumference edge will be shown. support: App::PropertyLinkSubList, optional It defaults to `None`. It is a list containing tuples to define the attachment of the new object. This parameter sets the `Support` property but it only really affects the position of the new object if its `MapMode` is set to other than `'Deactivated'`. primitive: bool, optional It defaults to `False`. If it is `True`, it will create a Part primitive instead of a Draft object. In this case, `placement`, `face` and `support` are ignored. Returns ------- Part::Part2DObject or Part::Feature The new arc object. Normally it returns a parametric Draft object (`Part::Part2DObject`). If `primitive` is `True`, it returns a basic `Part::Feature`. None Returns `None` if there is a problem and the object cannot be created.
