Did you know... CgoCircle = Overview = This script will create a CGO circle with the origin at the specified X,Y,Z coordinates. Also, you can specify the radius and the colors. See the examples. If you want to draw a circle around an object or selection, use circleSelection. If you want pure flexibility over your circle then use cgoCircle. There are two functions here: cgoCircle — creates a CGO circle at some user-specified location circleSelection —creates a circle around the named object or selection. Drawn circle. CGO circle. Circles of specified radius. Circle with specified width. Circle with a line width of 150. Pores anyone?
