<Image variable>.DrawSlice (Function)

In french: <Variable Image>.DessinePortion

Caution: In Linux, this function requires a specific configuration. For more details, see Drawing in WINDEV, WEBDEV and WINDEV Mobile.

Example

Syntax

Drawing a sector of a circle, specifying all the coordinates of the rectangle containing the circle Hide the details

<Image variable>.DrawSlice(<X1> , <Y1> , <X2> , <Y2> , <X3> , <Y3> , <X4> , <Y4> [, <Background color> [, <Line color>]])

<Image variable>: Image variable

<X1>: Integer

X-coordinate of the upper-left corner of the rectangle containing the circle. These coordinates are expressed in pixels.

<Y1>: Integer

Y-coordinate of the upper-left corner of the rectangle containing the circle. These coordinates are expressed in pixels.

<X2>: Integer

X-coordinate of the lower-right corner of the rectangle containing the circle. These coordinates are expressed in pixels.

<Y2>: Integer

Y-coordinate of the lower-right corner of the rectangle containing the circle. These coordinates are expressed in pixels.

<X3>: Integer

X-coordinate of the start point of the circle section. These coordinates are expressed in pixels.

<Y3>: Integer

Y-coordinate of the start point of the circle section. These coordinates are expressed in pixels.

<X4>: Integer

X-coordinate of the end point of the circle section. These coordinates are expressed in pixels.

<Y4>: Integer

Y-coordinate of the end point of the circle section. These coordinates are expressed in pixels.

<Background color>: Integer or constant (optional)

Background color of the circle section. This color can correspond to:
an RGB color (returned by RGB),
an HSL color (returned by HSL),
a WLanguage preset color,
a variable of type Color.
If this parameter is not specified, the background color:
is Transparent if <Image variable>.Background has not been used beforehand,
corresponds to the color specified in the last call to <Image variable>.Background.

<Line color>: Integer or constant (optional)

Color of the line for the circle section. This color can correspond to:
an RGB color (returned by RGB),
an HSL color (returned by HSL),
a WLanguage preset color,
a variable of type Color.
If this parameter is not specified, the line color:
is Transparent if <Image>.Pen has not been previously used.
For a variable of type Image, the line will be black.
corresponds to the color specified in the last call to <Image>.Pen.

<Image variable>.DrawSlice(<Rectangle> , <X3> , <Y3> , <X4> , <Y4> [, <Background color> [, <Line color>]])

<Image variable>: Image variable

<Rectangle>: Rectangle variable

Name of the Rectangle variable that corresponds to the rectangle containing the circle.

<X3>: Integer

X-coordinate of the start point of the circle section. These coordinates are expressed in pixels.

<Y3>: Integer

Y-coordinate of the start point of the circle section. These coordinates are expressed in pixels.

<X4>: Integer

X-coordinate of the end point of the circle section. These coordinates are expressed in pixels.

<Y4>: Integer

Y-coordinate of the end point of the circle section. These coordinates are expressed in pixels.

<Background color>: Integer or constant (optional)

Background color of the circle section. This color can correspond to:
an RGB color (returned by RGB),
an HSL color (returned by HSL),
a WLanguage preset color,
a variable of type Color.
If this parameter is not specified, the background color:
is Transparent if <Image variable>.Background has not been used beforehand,
corresponds to the color specified in the last call to <Image variable>.Background.

<Line color>: Integer or constant (optional)

Color of the line for the circle section. This color can correspond to:
an RGB color (returned by RGB),
an HSL color (returned by HSL),
a WLanguage preset color,
a variable of type Color.
If this parameter is not specified, the line color:
is Transparent if <Image>.Pen has not been previously used.
For a variable of type Image, the line will be black.
corresponds to the color specified in the last call to <Image>.Pen.

Remarks

Coordinates

If the start point and the end point are not located on the border of the circle (or on the border of the ellipse), the point taken into account corresponds to the intersection between the circle and the line that joins the specified point and the center of the rectangle (which means the center of the circle).

The drawing sections are drawn counterclockwise.

Non-solid figure

To draw a non-solid figure (without taking into account the center of the circle), use <Image variable>.DrawChord.

Drawing with opacity or anti-aliasing

In the case of drawing with opacity (function <picLayer variable>.StartDrawing with constant dWithOpacity) or anti-aliasing (function <Image variable>.ChangeMode with constant drawingAntiAliasing), the outline is drawn over the inside of the portion: the line is therefore partly combined with the inside of the portion. If the line is very thick, it will be displayed in two colors.
