contentBounds radius?

As the title suggests, is there a way to create a circular content bounds?

I have my code working perfectly except that the content bounds are rectangular even though the object itself is a circle.

I tried all sorts of cosine and sine equations and while I could get the numbers I need, nothing would give me a circular bounds.

All display objects are rendered to images, giving them rectangular properties, so no is the short answer.

If you create a circle object and give it a value of the radius you can then use that value later, eg:

local circle = display.newCircle( 0,0,50 )
circle.radius = 50

OK cheers, I’ll play around a little more and see if I can get it doing what I want, but good to know that everything ends up being rendered as a rectangle. [import]uid: 157954 topic_id: 32039 reply_id: 127793[/import]
