- compas.geometry.circle_from_points_xy(a, b, c)[source]
Create a circle from three points lying in the XY-plane
- Parameters
a ([float, float] or [float, float, float] |
Point) – XY(Z) coordinates of a 2D or 3D point (Z will be ignored).b ([float, float] or [float, float, float] |
Point) – XY(Z) coordinates of a 2D or 3D point (Z will be ignored).c ([float, float] or [float, float, float] |
Point) – XY(Z) coordinates of a 2D or 3D point (Z will be ignored).
- Returns
[float, float, 0.0] – Center of the circle in the XY plane.
float – Radius of the circle.
[0.0, 0.0, 1.0] – Normal of the plane containing the circle.
