Hello.
I am using GIMP 2.10.18. I have been having a problem with the ellipse tool all of a sudden.
The ellipse tool is not forming a perfect circle on the whole page whenever i hold down Ctrl + Shift. Whereas, it forms a perfect circle in the place where i actually form an ellipse.
This problem is only with ellipse tool. It doesn't create any problems with the rectangular select tool.
I have attached a GIF file to help you guys understand my problem better.
I hope you guys can understand what I'm trying to say.
Please help me.

Not possible to determine the problem from your animation. What you really need is the Tool Options dock open. Then you can see the aspect ratio setting. That needs to be 1:1 Do not assume that Current is 1:1 A previous selection can set some other value.

A quick demo of that situation, followed by a 1:1 selection. https://i.imgur.com/AZfOmqR.mp4
