Graphics::FillClosedCurve(constBrush*,constPoint*,INT,FillMode,REAL) method (gdiplusgraphics.h)

The Graphics::FillClosedCurve method creates a closed cardinal spline from an array of points and uses a brush to fill, according to a specified mode, the interior of the spline.

Syntax

Status FillClosedCurve(
  [in] const Brush *brush,
  [in] const Point *points,
  [in] INT         count,
  [in] FillMode    fillMode,
  [in] REAL        tension
);

Parameters

[in] brush

Type: const Brush*

Pointer to a Brush object that is used to paint the interior of the spline.

[in] points

Type: const Point*

Pointer to an array of points that this method uses to create a closed cardinal spline. Each point in the array is a point on the spline.

[in] count

Type: INT

Integer that specifies the number of points in the points array.

[in] fillMode

Type: FillMode

Element of the FillMode enumeration that specifies how to fill a closed area that is created when the curve passes over itself.

[in] tension

Type: REAL

Optional. Nonnegative real number that specifies how tightly the spline bends as it passes through the points. A value of 0 specifies that the spline is a sequence of straight lines. As the value increases, the curve becomes fuller. The default value is 0.5f.

Return value

Type: Status

If the method succeeds, it returns Ok, which is an element of the Status enumeration.

If the method fails, it returns one of the other elements of the Status enumeration.
