The circle tool is used for creating new {{l|Circle Layer|circle layers]]. Click where you want the {{l|Circle Layer#Center|center]] of the circle to be, and drag to set the {{l|Circle Layer#Radius|radius]].

The circle tool can also be used to create {{l|Outline Layer|outline layers]], {{l|Region Layer|region layers]], {{l|Curve Gradient Layer|curve gradient layers]], and {{l|Plant Layer|plant layers]], each with approximately circular {{l|BLine|BLines]].

The {{l|Tool Options Panel]] for the Circle Tool has checkboxes for each of the 5 types of layer (circle layer plus 4 bline layers) to select which layer type(s) will be created by the tool. It also has "BLine Points" which sets the number of BLinePoints that will be used in the new BLines, and "Point Angle Offset" which determines where on the circumference of the circle the BLinePoints will be.


Usage

Click on the canvas where you want to have the center of the circle and drag to obtain the desired radius value.
