This is not a major issue for me but I thought I should say something so it can get some visibility and possibly fixed. Or tell me what I am doing wrong here.

When I start a drawing and the first shape is not a line I’ve noticed somehow Shapr3D sometimes switches back to the line.

I just tried the same steps and it did not happen but here is a video of it.

**Steps Taken**

1. Create a new drawing
2. Tap `Top` view and scale so a 100mm circle will fit
3. Select `Sketch`
4. Select `Circle`
5. Draw a circle

Note sometimes a line gets drawn instead of a circle. I’ve also seen this when I select `Rectangle`, `Ellipse`, and `Polygon`.

I’ve generally thought I just forgot to select the other shape but when I edited this video and one other I see the `Circle` button was clearly selected.

**Demo**

I have encountered the same situation. And, it occasionally happens in the middle of a project and not necessarily at the start. Thanks for bringing this up.
