You click to place the first corner point, then click to place the second corner point. Alternatively, you can specify the width and height values.

The 3-Point Rectangle tool creates a rectangle defined by 3 points. The 3 points define the width, direction, and height of the rectangle.
You click to place the first corner point, then click to place the second point. Alternatively, you can specify the first distance value, then click to place the point. Then you click to place the third point or specify the second distance value.
