Circles

I don't know if it goes here or HWS, but anyway....

How do you make a perfect circle in Scratch? I may or may not be making a 0s1s project (I  am.  tongue ) and I need a perfect circle with a diameter of 60 so I can tell if the circle has been clicked using "

if <mouse down AND <mouse x = (item (any) of list [1circlex] AND <mouse y = (item (any) of list [1circley]>
 set [circle1clicked] to [true]
end
Ifyou see what I mean.

I know there is a shift trick to make a perfect circle, but what is it?

Use the circle tool, and hold shift while doing it.

Re: Circles

You can just make it in another program.

All though that isn't possible, there is a way (though its going to sound like a heap of instructions). Using the pen tool (in the paint editor), make a 5 pixel long horizontal line. Then, carefully use the stamp tool to stamp it 12 times so that you have a straight, long line. From there, use the pen tool to add 2 more pixels onto the line's ends. Now copy and rotate the entire line 90°. Put an end of that line to the end of your first line. Then, copy and stamp those two sides till you have a hollow 62x62 box. Using that box, you should be able to make a perfect 60x60 circle. Then, use the line tool and the blank color to get rid of the box and you've got your perfect circle!

I hope that this helps!
