Use the Arc (Move menu) command to move the tool in a circular motion in the workplane at the specified feedrate.
Arc moves can also be used as “freehand” machining commands where more complex machining cycles are unnecessary.

If you check the box, you are prompted to digitise a midpoint and an endpoint for the arc move.
If you leave the box unchecked, you are prompted to digitise the endpoint of the arc. The arc leaves the last move at a tangent and finishes at the endpoint.
