How to draw circle on the MAP using GMAP.NET in C#

Question

I am using GMAP.NET in c#. I am able to display the map on the form, now i am trying to draw a CIRCLE mouse by clicking on a certian point, keeping the left mouse button and dragging the mouse upto specific place. Once the circle is drawn I want to get its radius in miles from the center point which I am sure GMAP is capable of doing it. I am using Opentstreet maps.

I am just unable to achive this functionly, anybody who has played with GMAP control kindly share your experience with some code which will work.

Thanks

Here's how to draw a red circle, with black border on the map in WPF:

public class YourMapControl : GMapControl
{
   protected override void OnRender(DrawingContext drawingContext)
   {
      base.OnRender(drawingContext);

      Point center(40.730610, -73.935242);
      double radius = 0.1;

      drawingContext.DrawEllipse(Brushes.Red, Pens.Black, center, radius, radius);
   }
}

As far as the second part of the question itself, you would use the following built-in MapControl functions:

public bool DisableAltForSelection; //if true, selects area just by holding mouse and moving
public bool SelectionUseCircle; //use circle for selection
public event SelectionChange OnSelectionChange; //occurs when mouse selection is changed
public RectLatLng SelectedArea { get; set; } //returns rect with coordinates of the selected area
