I am trying to align five paths so that the center of each is located on a vertex of a regular pentagon (or, equivalently, the point of a five-pointed star). The paths are all different sizes. Does anyone know of a way to do this?

Just draw a star with star tool and position your path at the tips. If you need absolute precision, you can turn on snapping to object paths and snap them exactly to the star tips.

Thanks for the replies! My problem is that I need to align the *center* of each path to the points of the star. Since there is not necessarily a node at the exact center of each path, I don't think the snapping approach will work.
