Pull line back to node to create arc.

The one thing I still miss from SolidWorks is the ability when sketching to pull back to the node to change from line to arc. I haven't used SolidWorks since 2016, just pure Onshape but still find myself trying to do this when sketching.

    I more preferred the 'a' key to toggle between arc and line in Solidworks, but I totally get the frustration with the lack of some sort of shortcut. I did a quick search and couldn't find an appropriate improvement request. It seems like there must be one somewhere, and if not, there should be.

    I'm still trying to get it to switch and it never does.

    I caught myself trying to do this the other day too! Very handy feature from SW.
