Created attachment 146488 [details] Document shows 2 circles 13cm radius. The circles do not coincide. Open Draw. Draw a big circle with Shapes > Circle. Copy this shape. Insert so you get two shapes. Turn the circle 45 degrees. First and second circle aren't the same. The circle isn't circular. Tested with LO 6.1.3.2 64bit rpm Linux.
Reproduced for Version: 6.2.0.0.alpha1+ Build ID: 3d70b1253f964fb75cd4b5915b8dd031ee54d5c7 CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 4.14; UI render: default; VCL: kde5; TinderBox: Linux-rpm_deb-x86_64@86-TDF, Branch:master, Time: 2018-11-08_16:22:16 Locale: ru-RU (ru_RU.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US Calc: threaded
Steps to reproduce from scratch 1. Insert a ellipse 2. Click the figure and press f4 3. Set the size: height/Width to 15 4. Press Ok 5. Copy the circle & paste & and change the color of the circle (for difference) 6. Press F4 for the second circle 7. Go to rotation tab & rotate the circle 30 degrees (or something else) 8. Press OK -> circle not circular 9. Press F4 for the second circle (again) 10. Take a look at Size (18,21) 11. Set it to 15 -> Circle shrinks Also found in Versie: 4.4.7.2 Build ID: f3153a8b245191196a4b6b9abd1d0da16eead600 Locale: nl_NL
I'm going to use a 12-segment solution instead of the current 4-segment solution.

Solved. Tested on: Version: 6.2.0.0.beta1 Build ID: d1b41307be3f8c19fe6f1938cf056e7ff1eb1d18 CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 4.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3; Locale: ro-RO (ro_RO.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US Calc: threaded
It is not perfect, but is much better than in 6.0.
The follow up issue for increasing accuracy of circles and arcs in general is bug 121425.
