Virtual Drafting Compass
#6
@Quartz66 Ignore my previous post, too much using CAD application yesterday and thinking X - Y - Z coordinates.

As well as Ofnuts plugin a couple of others, both using paths

An old script but will get the shapes out onto your canvas http://registry.gimp.org/node/59

More recent: http://www.arakne.es/en/programming/pyth...reator-v8/

The great thing about paths is they can be scaled and moved relatively easily. Downside is, once 'painted' (stroked) the painted bit is fixed and further editing usually involved erasing.

For geometric design you might want to consider the vector application Inkscape, do the basics in that, then finish off in Gimp.
