Remarks
Composite geometry objects can be created using a GeometryGroup, a CombinedGeometry, or by calling the static Geometry method Combine. A CombinedGeometry creates a composite geometry from exactly two geometry objects. A GeometryGroup, on the other hand, creates a composite geometry from any number of geometry objects.
GeometryGroup uses the FillRule property to specify how its geometry objects are combined. See How to: Control the Fill of a Composite Shape for more information on using FillRule.
Geometries can be combined in several ways: using a GeometryGroup, a CombinedGeometry, or the Combine method of the Geometry class.
A GeometryGroup creates a composite geometry from one or more Geometry objects.
A CombinedGeometry uses a specified boolean operation to combine the area described by two Geometry objects.
The static Combine method of the Geometry class behaves in exactly the same manner as the CombinedGeometry object.
It is worth noting that a GeometryCollection is not itself a composite geometry, but is used by the GeometryGroup class to store Geometry objects.

Makes the instance a modifiable clone (deep copy) of the specified Freezable using current property values. (Inherited from Freezable) |
