Hatch wish: radial fill for circles at 100%?!

Hi @stevebaer,

can you optimize the hatch radial fill for circle curves.

I would like to have the right color at 100% at the radius point.

The maximum calculation seams to be based on the control polygon, and not the maximum distance from the center.

I hope my picture explains it better:

Hi Michael - I see that… I don’t know if that could somehow to be ‘special-cased’ for circles - my guess is it’s using the bounding box max and not the control polygon-

they happen to coincide in this case.

Hi Pascal,

you are right, the bounding box is used.

A maximum distance calculation from center to vertices would be much nicer in any case, also with your ellipse case, I think.

Thanks
