Currently a Circle is dimensioned with

- Center X
- Center Y
- Point on Circle X
- Point on Circle Y

is there a reason for doing it this way as having just Center and
Radius would be simpler for entry.

Currently i believe the file format internally uses center&Point but
the dialog could convert between them easily enough. the only possible
reason that i can think of is for square pins in round holes, but i
believe its not that simple in most cases.
