BOOL Arc( int x1, int y1, int x2, int y2, int x3, int y3, int x4, int y4 );
BOOL Arc( LPRECT lpRect, POINT ptStart, POINT ptEnd );
x1
Specifies the x-coordinate of the upper-left corner of the bounding rectangle (in logical units).
y1
Specifies the y-coordinate of the upper-left corner of the bounding rectangle (in logical units).
x2
Specifies the x-coordinate of the lower-right corner of the bounding rectangle (in logical units).
y2
Specifies the y-coordinate of the lower-right corner of the bounding rectangle (in logical units).
x3
Specifies the x-coordinate of the point that defines the arc's starting point (in logical units). This point does not have to lie exactly on the arc.
y3
Specifies the y-coordinate of the point that defines the arc's starting point (in logical units). This point does not have to lie exactly on the arc.
x4
Specifies the x-coordinate of the point that defines the arc's endpoint (in logical units). This point does not have to lie exactly on the arc.
y4
Specifies the y-coordinate of the point that defines the arc's endpoint (in logical units). This point does not have to lie exactly on the arc.
lpRect
Specifies the bounding rectangle (in logical units). You can pass either a LPRECT or a CRect object for this parameter.
ptStart
Specifies the x- and y-coordinates of the point that defines the arc's starting point (in logical units). This point does not have to lie exactly on the arc. You can pass either a POINT structure or a CPoint object for this parameter.
ptEnd
Specifies the x- and y-coordinates of the point that defines the arc's ending point (in logical units). This point does not have to lie exactly on the arc. You can pass either a POINT structure or a CPoint object for this parameter.
Draws an elliptical arc. The arc drawn by using the function is a segment of the ellipse defined by the specified bounding rectangle.
The actual starting point of the arc is the point at which a ray drawn from the center of the bounding rectangle through the specified starting point intersects the ellipse. The actual ending point of the arc is the point at which a ray drawn from the center of the bounding rectangle through the specified ending point intersects the ellipse. The arc is drawn in a counterclockwise direction. Since an arc is not a closed figure, it is not filled.
TRUE if the arc is drawn; otherwise FALSE.
