Draw a circle around a target or central location

Map showing a full circle drawn around a central location pin.

The extension also allows users to place a circle around the center pin. This can be done by adding parameters to the formula that enable the circle to be shown:

  • circleRad—The radius of the circle in miles. If a % is passed into this parameter such as 50%, then the circle's radius is half of the rad parameter.

  • circleColor—Determines the color of the circle. Can be either the hex value (#00FFFF) or the color name (Blue). The color names allowed are listed on the W3C CSS color keywords page.

  • colorFill—Determines whether the circle is filled in.

Note

The circle only appears if QB Maps finds the center record. To display a center pin, see Center location—Radius.
