Specifying # of points in a circle

Does anyone know if a circle (or ellipse) can be created by specifying the number of points it has? I think the default is 16 points but I often have need for varying numbers of equidistant points. one workaround is to place a polygon (with the # of points I want) in the middle and then click to add new points, but then you end up with something that isn't really a circle anymore :)

Hi Brendan, you can use the Rebuild command to help with that. It doesn't currently have a button in the UI so to run it push the Tab key and type in Rebuild and push Enter.

Then in the "Rebuild options" that will show in the upper right area of the main window, set Mode = # Points and fill in the "Point count" field.
