What is the bug or the crash?
There used to be an "Add circular string" tool along with the "Add circular string by radius" one on the Shape digitizing toolbar. It helped to digitize an arc provided three points on it.I can't find it anymore, in master 3.27.
With recent refactoring, it is now possible to create an arc with three points using the common let's say "add feature" tool with the "Digitize with curve" method ON. Is that the reason why the "Add circular string" tool is gone or was its removal a bug? I would have seen a direct tool on the "Shape digitizing toolbar" a good user experience (but maybe more complex on code maintenance?)
If the removal is intended, then the "Add circular string by radius" should probably not display as a menu but a direct tool. A drop-down menu with a single item, that is already "selected" is confusing (makes you wonder if you have a tool missing).
