Curve.TryGetCircle Method (Circle, Double)

CurveTryGetCircle Method (Circle, Double)

Try to convert this curve into a Circle using a custom tolerance.

Namespace:  Rhino.Geometry
Assembly:  RhinoCommon (in RhinoCommon.dll)
Since: 5.0
Syntax
Copy
public bool TryGetCircle(
	out Circle circle,
	double tolerance
)
Public Function TryGetCircle ( 
	<OutAttribute> ByRef circle As Circle,
	tolerance As Double
) As Boolean

Parameters

circle
Type: Rhino.GeometryCircle
On success, the Circle will be filled in.
tolerance
Type: SystemDouble
Tolerance to use when checking.

Return Value

Type: Boolean
true if the curve could be converted into a Circle within tolerance.
