Yet another way; Draw your circle as you would normally Select all (your circle), now select the Rotate tool Click once but do not release the left mouse button but drag it horizontally until you find it aligned to where you want NOW release the mouse, pick another point and start the rotate operation as you would otherwise. I wish the circle and polygon tools worked the same way...

Thanks!

BTW, I installed SU3D on my xp machine and I was pleaqsantly surprised to see that previews of the models in the files were displayed as icons. Then I installed it on my vistugh machine and only got the regular icons. Is there any trick to getting SU3d icons to show the model in the file on a vistugh machine? I've downed a lot of models, it's be greeat to be able to see what I was opening before I did
