circle(
|
|
@sketch_or_surface: [Sketch](/docs/kcl/types/Sketch) | [Plane](/docs/kcl/types/Plane) | [Face](/docs/kcl/types/Face),
|
|
center: [Point2d](/docs/kcl/types/Point2d),
|
|
radius: [number](/docs/kcl/types/number)(Length),
|
|
tag?: tag,
|
|
): [Sketch](/docs/kcl/types/Sketch)
|

### Examples
|
|
|
|
```kcl
|
|
exampleSketch = startSketchOn(-XZ)
|
