The following show examples of creating circles. The radius specifies the size. The resolution option determines the number of segments to create in 360 degrees of rotation.

Defaults:

  • radius : 1
  • center : [0,0]
  • resolution: defaultResolution2D (32)
let c1 = circle(1) 
let c2 = circle({r: 2, fn:5})            // fn = number of segments to approximate the circle
let c3 = circle({r: 3, center: true})
