Reshape circle objects

Click Transform > Reshape Object to reshape circle objects.

For objects created with the Circle tool, you reshape using the existing reshape nodes only. You cannot add, change or delete reshape nodes in these objects. You can change Circle objects from circles to ovals using the Reshape Object tool. Circle objects have two reshape nodes (used to change the radius and orientation of the object), a center point (used to reposition it), and a stitch entry point.
