I start to use the tool then hold down shift, but I still see an allipse. I see the same when holding down control!

set fixed aspect ratio 1:1
That worked

  1. Make sure that the Tool options "Fixed" sections has the selector on "Aspect ratio" and the entry field with "1:1" (these are default, AFAIK)
  1. Depress Shift after you start dragging...  (or tick the "Fixed" box beforehand)
That worked.

  • Click-Drag-Shift-Unclick-Unshift produces a circle
  • Click-Drag-Unclick-Click-Drag-ShiftUnclick-Unshift produces an ellipse (with the aspect ratio set on first unclick)
Good gracious. I will try and avoid this.
