RE: constrain center of circle along Y axis
Now if all you want to do is simply create a circle whose center just HAPPENS to lie on the Y-axis, just go to...
Insert -> Curve -> Lines and Arcs -> Circle Center-Radius...
...and when the on-screen entry is displayed showing the XC,YC,ZC coordinates as you move the cursor around the screen, just enter a '0' for the value of 'XC', press MB1, then either drag or enter a radius value and then press MB1 a second time.
