<p class="MsoNormal">Hi List,<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I was wondering, is there a plugin that would allow the digitisation of a circle, but during the digitisation would also show the user the radius of the circle?<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">This way a user can draw a circle of 500m (or whatever) radius easily.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Could also potentially be useful for other shapes.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I've dabbled with the plugins and there's certainly one for digitising circles, but none does the measuring as best I can see. Is there one I'm missing?<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Cheers,<o:p></o:p></p>
