How can I draw a circle that is equally proportioned? 

How can I draw a shape to scale?

 

Possible Shapes:

Circular Table (72“ diameter)

Unlike Visio or similar drawing programs, Miro being an infinite canvas does not have a way of representing “real world” metrics. The closest workaround would be to create a “ruler” of some kind using a line or rectangle of fixed length, and then create objects in relation to that ruler’s length.

Ok, that could work for this use case, so a ruler that is a straight line would be necessary to find first.

Ok, better method.

It does have gridlines underneath which is something I missed as well as symmetry markings when you start to drag in any direction. If you shift + drag corner also, it will maintain that symmetry that you have set.

That solves it for me.

Thanks to everyone that helped.
