Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack the Ripper Xbox 360 Cheats and Tips

If you have to draw free-form on the PC version, I can't help. But if it's a point-and-click interface, like the X360 version...
You need to draw a circle by click the middle of the green line between Dutfield's Yard and Mitre Square, and expanding the circle until it touches both places.

My first try also was not successful. Try my (wrong) method.
Make an oval by clicking on Dutfield's Yard to Mitre Square.
Make another oval by clicking on Mitre Square to Dutfield's Yard.
Try (and most likely fail) to draw an ellipsis from where these two ovals intersect, from top intersecting point to bottom one.
After all this, you should be able to easily click on the middle of the green line and draw and circle that touches Dutfield's Yard and Mitre Square.

Are you talking about the options you need to choose when talking to Walesby on the telephone?
For the first and last questions, just think like a smart-ass. For the middle question, think seriously.

From the X360 version...
Your magnet (and the hole) is in the upper left corner. The other magnet (and the hook) is in the lower right corner.
Slide your magnet down a bit, then make the other magnet go between the two blocks/obstructions on the right side of the pane, make the 2 magnets overlap, then use your magnet to follow the path the other magnet took back down to the bottom right corner.
Then slide the top part of the desk to reveal a tiny hole and use the hook.
