      @Li-Xiao Check 'Snap to Original' in the Snapping panel's menu.

        @b77 Thanks
        After being away on a business trip for more than ten days, I haven't adjusted back to the local time, I forgot to look at the options in the menu. 😇

          @b77 How to snap the midpoint of polygon edges without adding nodes, as adding nodes would disrupt the live effect of polygon

            @Li-Xiao There is no snapping to midpoints of segments.

              @Li-Xiao You can do it with 'Snap to Objects' instead, by drawing the ellipse
              from the center with Ctrl-Shift: https://recordit.co/KUfIpjiPf8

                @b77 Thanks
                That's also a solution, but it seems like there is an issue with my snapping feature.

                  @Li-Xiao Hm…it looks like it doesn't work when the polygon is selected.
                  (It's selected immediately after drawing it).

                    a more unsual approach, its also possible to switch between
                    a smart shape polygon and path polygon
                    via the Shape Picker Tool

                    so you can use the path for alignment and
                    replace it later

                    See video here

                      @Subpath Thanks, It would be much more convenient if the snapping feature worked like in CD, where snapping to edges is possible.
                      @VectorStyler I hope an option for creating polygons based on the length of sides can be added.

                        I added this to the backlog.

                        Snap to the last shape while drawing will work better in the next build.

                        snapping to edges

                        This is a bit difficult for object resizing. It can work for special cases (as in Corel), but we need something like collision snapping that works for movements only.
