short Escape(hDC, SET_ARC_DIRECTION, sizeof(int),lpDirection, NULL)
This escape specifies the direction in which elliptical arcs are drawn using the GDI Arc function.
By convention, elliptical arcs are drawn counterclockwise by GDI. This escape lets an application draw paths containing arcs drawn clockwise.
