# Point on circle

> **Note:** **What is it about?**
>
> This page describes the **Point on Circle node** of the Scene Nodes system in **Cinema 4D**. It outputs positions along a freely oriented circular path — by angle or percentage — a staple for radial arrangements and orbital animation.

This outputs a position on a circular path whose radius and orientation along the world axes can be freely selected. Different modes allow the calculation of the circle position using an angle or a percentage value related to the length of the circular path.
