GraphicsPathIterator.NextPathType(Byte, Int32, Int32) Method

Definition

Gets the starting index and the ending index of the next group of data points that all have the same type.

public:
 int NextPathType([Runtime::InteropServices::Out] System::Byte % pathType, [Runtime::InteropServices::Out] int % startIndex, [Runtime::InteropServices::Out] int % endIndex);
public int NextPathType (out byte pathType, out int startIndex, out int endIndex);
member this.NextPathType : byte * int * int -> int
Public Function NextPathType (ByRef pathType As Byte, ByRef startIndex As Integer, ByRef endIndex As Integer) As Integer

Parameters

pathType
Byte

[out] Receives the point type shared by all points in the group. Possible types can be retrieved from the PathPointType enumeration.

startIndex
Int32

[out] Receives the starting index of the group of points.

endIndex
Int32

[out] Receives the ending index of the group of points.

Returns

This method returns the number of data points in the group. If there are no more groups in the path, this method returns 0.

Examples

The following example is designed for use with Windows Forms, and it requires PaintEventArgs e, an OnPaint event object. The code performs the following actions:

  • Creates a GraphicsPath object.

  • Adds three lines, a rectangle, and an ellipse.

  • Lists the values of all the points to the left side of the screen.

  • Creates a GraphicsPathIterator and rewinds it.

  • In a for loop, iterates through the points using the NextPathType and NextPathType methods.

  • Uses the values returned from the iterative calls to list the subpath number, the number of points in it, and the type of the path points to the right side of the screen.

  • Displays the value for the total number of points to the screen.

Note that ListPathPoints is a helper function that separates most (not all) of the display code from the graphics path code.
