SelectClipPath

	BOOL SelectClipPath(hdc, iMode)
	HDC hdc;

Specifies the way to use the path. The following values are allowed:

Type

Meaning

RGN_AND
	The new clip region includes the overlapping areas of the current clip region and the current path (intersection).
RGN_COPY
	The new clip region is the current path.
RGN_DIFF
	The new clip region includes the areas of the current clip region with those of the current path excluded.
RGN_OR
	The new clip region includes the combined areas of the current clip region and the current path (union).
RGN_XOR
	The new clip region includes the combined areas of the current clip region and the current path but without the overlapping areas.

The return value is TRUE if the call succeeded, otherwise FALSE.

The DC must have an inactive path bracket, started by calling BeginPath and ended by calling EndPath. SelectClipPath discards the path.
