ID2D1Factory::CreateEllipseGeometry method

Creates an ID2D1EllipseGeometry.

Syntax

c++

virtual HRESULT CreateEllipseGeometry(
  [in]  const D2D1_ELLIPSE         *ellipse,
  [out]       ID2D1EllipseGeometry **ellipseGeometry
) = 0;

Parameters

• ellipse [in]
  Type: const D2D1_ELLIPSE*

  A value that describes the center point, x-radius, and y-radius of the ellipse geometry.

• ellipseGeometry [out]
  Type: ID2D1EllipseGeometry**

  When this method returns, contains the address of the pointer to the ellipse geometry created by this method.

Return value

Type: HRESULT

If this method succeeds, it returns S_OK. Otherwise, it returns an HRESULT error code.

Examples

The following creates two ID2D1EllipseGeometry objects and combines them using the different geometry combine modes.

c++

HRESULT DemoApp::CreateGeometryResources()
{
    HRESULT hr = S_OK;
    ID2D1GeometrySink *pGeometrySink = NULL;

    // Create the first ellipse geometry to merge.
    const D2D1_ELLIPSE circle1 = D2D1::Ellipse(
