    To draw a circle in GIMP, select the Ellipse Select Tool (E), hold Shift to lock a 1:1 aspect ratio, drag out your shape

    Totally impossible, you are right!

      Funny thing is, I think that’s how you do it in Photoshop as well. The shift/control/alt to lock aspect ratio, origin, etc. is pretty common. MS Paint had it. lmao

      That’s a selection, not drawing yet; not to speak of editing the shape afterwards. Anyway, pardon on my part, I actually meant to say circular stroke, like this:

      In Pixelitor, Photocraft, Photocraft’s miniPaint web tool, the screenshot tools Spectacle and Flameshot this is all trivial to do, why not in GIMP?
