how can i draw a circle-object

Postby yellowbird » Fri Nov 21, 2008 8:18 pm

When I draw a rectangle with the rectangle tool, it is stored as a rect object in the svg-file.
When I draw a circle with the Circle/Ellipses/Arc Tool it is stored as a path (containing two arcs) in the svg file.
Is there a way to create a circle which is stored as circle object in the file?

I found the function "object to path" to convert i.e. the rectangle to a path, but I could not find anything to do it other way round.

thanks, Wolfgang

we don't support the svg circle object in terms of creation I'm afraid.
