Is there a way to control the Inscribed arc width? For example, a star (symmetry 5, connect points skip 2, connect border off) with Inscribe Points on will have the inscribed arc extend outside of the star, to where the invisible border of the pentagon is.

I'd like to control this width in both directions: one to extend the arc to the outer circle (like the blue line in the picture), and one to shorten the width such that the inscription is inside the star (I crossed out the line in red). I imagine an "inscription width" variable would be enough?

There isn't really a way to do that right now. I could look into adding a width+rotation override, but that might have to be on a per-position basis or I could add a couple of selection boxes that apply to the whole ring that control the upper and lower connection points. Do you have a preference?

I'm not sure I fully understand the two options. I would have thought a singe width override that applied to the whole ring would be enough, to either extend the arc in both directions, or shrink the arc in both directions. It seems by default the arc extends to the connection point lines, so overriding with a larger width could extend it towards the outer ring, while overriding with a shorter width (or negative offset?) would bring it closer to the "connect-point-skip-2" lines. It doesn't seem like a rotation is necessary. But I'm not sure how it is implemented under the hood.

By the way, in my picture I showed two separate cases, I didn't intend to mean that both the red and blue cases could be done simultaneously. I intended to either extend the arc in both directions (like the clue line shows, just on both sides), or shorten the arc in both directions (the red X, but on both sides).
