How to get specifik points

I am trying to get a set of points from a grid of points. I want to use some sort of geometry to get the set of points that i want to use. I.E if I have a circle or elipsoid then I just want the points from the grid which are within the circle/elipsoid. I have tried with boolean patterns and dispatch and the new Trim inclusion function, but none seem to work...

The latest Grasshopper version has a CurveContainment component that allows you to test points against closed, planar regions.

I saw that component...

The 0, 1, 2 output seem like it might require a bit of post-processing to work with the result, but I'm sure it will be useful when the situation arises.

P.S. Do you ever sleep?

David, would it be possible to include an option to either have the coincidental result as either inclusion or exclusion as most of the time I'm only interested in the inclusive and therefor would like to reduce the need for an extra Equals Components
