Function works exactly as expected. User determines center and radius of array. Origins are not used with this function.

Previous versions of KICAD made it possible to center a circular array by placing a grid origin or drill origin

I didn’t remember that.

It appears that possibility has been removed.

Probably best if you create a “Feature Request” explaining how previous versions worked and asking to re-introduce that function.

Posting “Circular arrays cannot select an origin” on gitlab with no other comments will probably get your issue dismissed.
