Was there a known issue there?

Are you really going to get defensively patronising over this? I think I’mma bounce, lol.

Yeah you might be right.

I should clarify I use GIMP. A lot! But this is one way it sucks. By this point I don’t know what other similar programs even have over it - it finally got adjustment layers after some decades. So if I can recognise this shortcoming anyone should be able to ;)

The other major thing was switching to single window mode. Floating windows for everything was absolutely batshit.

The first two sets of instructions are for drawing a disc, rather than a circle (a disc being a filled-in circle) and don’t extend to drawing a circle easily. The last method does, but it is about 10x as long. The traditional method for drawing a circle was to select the inner circle, save the selection to a channel, grow the selection by the pixel width of the stroke you want, subtract the saved selection, then fill. Wonderful /s

GIMP does not (unless I missed it in a ~recent update) have a shape tool like most image editors. The GIMP documentation in any case suggests using Inkscape for the purpose.
