Graphics::FillPie(constBrush*,constRectF&,REAL,REAL) method (gdiplusgraphics.h)

Article
02/22/2024

The Graphics::FillPie method uses a brush to fill the interior of a pie.

Syntax

Status FillPie(
  const Brush   *brush,
  const RectF & rect,
  REAL          startAngle,
  REAL          sweepAngle
);

Parameters

brush

Pointer to a Brush object that is used to paint the interior of the pie.

rect

Reference to a rectangle that bounds the ellipse. A curved portion of the ellipse is the arc of the pie.

startAngle

Real number that specifies the angle, in degrees, between the x-axis and the starting point of the pie's arc.

sweepAngle

Return value

If the method succeeds, it returns Ok, which is an element of the Status enumeration.

If the method fails, it returns one of the other elements of the Status enumeration.

Remarks

A pie is a portion of the interior of an ellipse (it is bounded by an elliptical curve and two radial lines). The startAngle and sweepAngle specify the portion of the ellipse to be used.

Examples

The following example defines a pie and then fills it.

VOID Example_FillPie2(HDC hdc)
{
   Graphics graphics(hdc);

   // Create a SolidBrush object.
   SolidBrush blackBrush(Color(255, 0, 0, 0));

   // Define the pie shape.
   RectF ellipseRect(0.5f, 0.8f, 200.9f, 100.6f);
   REAL startAngle = 0.0;
   REAL sweepAngle = 45.8;

   // Fill the pie.
   graphics.FillPie(&blackBrush, ellipseRect, startAngle, sweepAngle);
}
