Can you create a circle with CreatePath()?

If not, is there another way to create a circle using expression?

    Something like this should work:

    r = 100; // radius
ratio = .5523;
t = r*ratio;
vertices = [[r,0],[0,r],[r,2*r],[2*r,r]];
inTangents = [[t,0],[0,-t],[-t,0],[0,t]];
outTangents = [[-t,0],[0,t],[t,0],[0,-t]];
closed = true;
createPath(vertices,inTangents,outTangents,closed);

      This version might be better--it's centered at the anchor point:

      r = 100; // radius
ratio = .5523;
t = r*ratio;
vertices = [[0,-r],[r,0],[0,r],[-r,0]];
inTangents = [[-t,0],[0,-t],[t,0],[0,t]];
outTangents = [[t,0],[0,t],[-t,0],[0,-t]];
closed = true;
createPath(vertices,inTangents,outTangents,closed);
