Circle component

Shapestype: "circle"

A perfect circle with fill, border and shadow control — avatars frames, dots, badges and decorative accents.

Edit it — this is the actual editor panel

Circle examples

Real renders of the circle — each one is the same component with different property values, and the API payload below each preview reproduces it exactly.

Notification count badge

A red circle sized to carry an imagined unread-count number on an app screenshot.

API overrides for this example

{
  "badge.fillColor": "#EF4444",
  "badge.boxShadow": "0 4px 12px rgba(239,68,68,0.4)"
}

Brand accent orb

A glowing indigo orb used as a decorative backdrop element on a dark OG image.

API overrides for this example

{
  "badge.fillColor": "#6366F1",
  "badge.boxShadow": "0 0 60px rgba(99,102,241,0.6)"
}

All circle styles

Every style rendered live — each is just a different set of property values on the same component, and each has its own page with a dedicated preview, use cases and API example.

RingTransparent fill with a thick border — avatar frames and focus accents.

DotA small solid dot — status indicators and bullet accents.

Use cases

What developers typically build with the circle component.

Status dots recolored by health or state
Avatar frames and profile accents
Notification-style count badges

Use it dynamically via the API

Recolor per render with '<key>.fillColor' (or just '<key>'); opacity and borderColor are overridable too.

Full API request with the sample design's current values — the playground above sends only the properties you change

curl --location 'https://render.imejis.io/v1/{{YOUR_DESIGN_ID}}' \
--header 'dma-api-key: {{YOUR_API_KEY}}' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
    "badge.fillColor": "#F59E0B",
    "badge.opacity": 1
}'

Only send the properties you want to change — everything else keeps its design value. See the API documentation for all languages.

Property reference

Every property the circle component accepts — in the editor, in design JSON, and as API overrides.

Property	Type	Edits as	Default	Description
fillColor	color	#808080	"#808080"	Fill color.
radius	number	0	—	Explicit radius in pixels (otherwise derived from the component size).
opacity	number	1	1	Overall component opacity from 0 (transparent) to 1 (opaque).
borderWidth	number	0	0	Border thickness in pixels around the component.
borderColor	color	transparent	"transparent"	Border color (any CSS color).
borderStyle	'solid' \| 'dashed' \| 'dotted' \| 'double' \| 'none'	soliddasheddotteddoublenone	"solid"	Border line style.
borderRadius	number	0	0	Corner radius in pixels.
boxShadow	string	text	—	CSS box-shadow applied to the component, e.g. "0 4px 6px rgba(0,0,0,0.1)".

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes — '<key>.fillColor' (or just the key) sets the color per render; opacity and border properties are overridable too.

It fills its component box by default, or set the radius property for an explicit pixel radius.

Use a transparent fillColor with a thick borderWidth and borderColor — the Ring variant shows exactly this setup.
