VOID Example_IntersectRect(HDC hdc)
{
   Graphics graphics(hdc);

   Point points[] = {
      Point(110, 20),
      Point(120, 30),
      Point(100, 60),
      Point(120, 70),
      Point(150, 60),
      Point(140, 10)};

   Rect rect(65, 15, 70, 45);
   GraphicsPath path;
   SolidBrush solidBrush(Color(255, 255, 0, 0));

   path.AddClosedCurve(points, 6);

   // Create a region from a path.
    Region pathRegion(&path);   
    
   // Update the region to the portion that intersects with the rectangle.
   pathRegion.Intersect(rect);

   graphics.FillRegion(&solidBrush, &pathRegion);
}
