    Hi. For those who still use versions 0.92.4 and 0.92.5, I recently discovered this nice extension that can be manually pasted where your other inx and py file extensions are located.

    After pasting those 2 files, restart Inkscape.

    (This extension will be under Extensions > Cad Tools.)

    You draw a straight line, then Path > Object to Path, select the line and run this Circle by Two Points extension.

    Your line will still exist and a circle will be created with that same radius.

    This extension can come in handy when wanting to place multiple circles of different radius at specific locations where perhaps the snapping tools will not do. And for other situations.

    It is found at this topic post:

    And see the attached file.

    Enjoy.

    By the way, Inkscape version 1.0 and 1.01 has a similar extension in place called Ellipse from Points.
