I have the need to create several circles with different numbers of nodes.
Then using the Markers to build the rest of the project.
Example 5" circle with 12 nodes or a 3" circle with 5 nodes.
I usually go this way, starting with a square:
As with most tasks, there are several ways to do this. Here's my proposal.
(The node markers on the last circle aren't rendered in my browser but they show up in Inkscape.)
Here's a similar way, using arcs and the transform dialog
I made a small update to https://inkscape.org/~inklinea/%E2%98%85polygon-side
It will made an ( arc constructed ) circle path with n-nodes.
You will have to resize the circle afterwards.
A slightly more efficient workflow, though perhaps made redundant by Inklinea's extension. Thank you, Inklinea. (That's not sarcasm.)
