The Chord function draws a chord (a region bounded by the intersection of an ellipse and a line segment, called a “secant”). The chord is outlined by using the current pen and filled by using the current brush.
BOOL Chord(
HDC hdc, |
// handle to device context |
int nLeftRect, |
// x-coordinate of the upper-left corner of the bounding rectangle |
int nTopRect, |
// y-coordinate of the upper-left corner of the bounding rectangle |
int nRightRect, |
// x-coordinate of the lower-right corner of the bounding rectangle |
int nBottomRect, |
// y-coordinate of the lower-right corner of the bounding rectangle |
int nXRadial1, |
// x-coordinate of the first radial’s endpoint |
int nYRadial1, |
// y-coordinate of the first radial’s endpoint |
int nXRadial2, |
// x-coordinate of the second radial’s endpoint |
int nYRadial2 |
// y-coordinate of the second radial’s endpoint |
); |
If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.
If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.
The curve of the chord is defined by an ellipse that fits the specified bounding rectangle. The curve begins at the point where the ellipse intersects the first radial and extends counterclockwise to the point where the ellipse intersects the second radial. (A radial is a line segment drawn from the center of the ellipse to a specified endpoint on the ellipse.) The chord is closed by drawing a line from the intersection of the first radial and the curve to the intersection of the second radial and the curve.
If the starting point and ending point of the curve are the same, a complete ellipse is drawn.
The current position is neither used nor updated by Chord.
Windows 95: The sum of the coordinates of the bounding rectangle cannot exceed 32,767. The sum of nLeftRect and nRightRect or nTopRect and nBottomRect parameters cannot exceed 32,767.
