Circle
Definition
The Circle component visualizes a circle of a given Radius, in meters, centered at a Latitude and Longitude. The Circle’s appearance cnn be customized using properties such as FillColor, StrokeColor, and StrokeWidth.
The Circle component can also be used to implement features such as geofencing, a mechanism where the user’s presence within an area is used to trigger other behaviors. Using the DistanceToPoint method combined with the LocationSensor, you can determine whether a user’s location is inside or outside of the Circle. You can use this feature to trigger additional actions.
