Remarks

Geometries can be used individually or in combination to declare the data for a Path. For details on the relationship between Path and geometries, see Geometries.

FillRule is technically a property inherited from the base Geometryclass, but setting it has no effect on an EllipseGeometry.

EllipseGeometry Compared to Ellipse

The Ellipse class has a Fill, Stroke, and other rendering properties that EllipseGeometry lacks.

The EllipseGeometry class simply defines the geometry of an ellipse, and cannot render itself. Because of its simplicity, it has a wider range of uses.

Examples

The following example shows how to create an ellipse using EllipseGeometry.

<Canvas>
  <Path Fill="Gold" Stroke="Black" StrokeThickness="1">
    <Path.Data>
      <EllipseGeometry Center="50,50" RadiusX="50" RadiusY="50" />
    </Path.Data>
  </Path>
</Canvas>

The following illustration shows the output from the example.
