The circle is converted into a polygon. The number of edges in this polygon is controlled by the {arcres} and {arcsag} parameters. {arcres} is the angle subtended by a single edge to the center of the circle (e.g arcres of 9.0 indicates that the polygon will have 360.0/9.0 = 40 edges). {arcsag} is the sagitta of the circular arc that is approximated by each edge of the polygon. If 0.0, this parameter is ignored.
