[Qgis-user] Create circle with diameter in QGIS

[Andreas Neumann]

Hi Madeline,

You need to enable the "Advanced Digitizing mode/panel". See 
https://docs.qgis.org/3.16/en/docs/user_manual/working_with_vector/editing_geometry_attributes.html#the-advanced-digitizing-panel 
for details.

The shortcut "d" (distance) is your friend. When this mode is activated 
you can enter distances (like your radius) with the keyboard and QGIS 
will constrain to these values.

You need to invest a bit of time to understand all the construction 
modes, but once you get it, it is quite powerful.

Greetings,

Andreas
