Specify the radius, in the same way, interactively, or by entering the diameter value in the inspector. You can also press [R] to switch to radius input mode or [D] to switch back to diameter input mode. When editing a circle you can modify it directly in graphical window by moving circle points or change circle properties in inspector panel.
