Diamonds and Gemstones
Center Between Gems
Center Between Gems
The Center Between Gems command finds the natural prong locations between neighboring stones and marks each one with a reference circle.
Select the diamonds and gemstones to analyze, or press Enter to run the command on every gem already in the document. The command then looks at every group of three gems that sit close enough to touch a common point, and fits a circle tangent to the three girdles — the spot where a shared prong would naturally sit between them. All the resulting circles are added to the document as a single group, ready to guide prong placement.
If no gems are found in the selection or in the document, the command reports it and does nothing.
