Function NewDiskSector

geometry/disk.go:23–78

NewDiskSector creates a disk (filled circle) or disk sector geometry with the specified radius, number of radial segments/triangles (minimum 3), sector start angle in radians, and sector size angle in radians. The center of the disk is at the origin, and theta runs counter-clockwise on the XY plane,
