I’m trying to make a specific circle that looks like this
I’ve been trying to do it with a square but it doesn’t look quite like that and it comes out like this
Is there any way to do it with the circle or is it a whole new shape that I have to do? and how can I save the shapes with the size that I create?

Draw a rectangle which defines the straight sides:
Select both and either use Boolean Intersection:

If you wish to re-use a geometry, export it as an SVG:
Save it with a suitable name, and then make a folder by About | Carbide Create | Open Data Directory and navigate into the Library directory:
C:\Users\~\AppData\Local\Carbide 3D\Carbide Create\library
(on Windows — use your user directory name in lieu of ~)
make a folder in there, and copy the file into it, then when you bring up the Library and select that folder:
Wow perfect explanation this helped me out a lot! And saves me so much time!
