So it is just three steps really, steps 3-5 in your list. I suppose that is reasonable. Is there any way to see the thickness of the circle when selecting? For instance, in Kolourpaint (I use KDE) the user selects the Elipse tool, and when he drags the tool he sees exactly what the result will be. Can this be done in Gimp?
