CloseFigure
The CloseFigure function closes an open figure in a path.
BOOL CloseFigure(
HDC hdc
| // handle to device context
| );
|
|
Parameters
hdc
Identifies the device context in which the figure will be closed.
Return Values
If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.
If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error
information, call GetLastError.
Remarks
The CloseFigure function closes the figure by drawing a line from the current position to the
first point of the figure (usually, the point specified by the most recent
call to the MoveToEx function) and then connects the lines by using the line join style. If a
figure is closed by using the LineTo function instead of CloseFigure, end caps are used to create the corner instead of a join.
The CloseFigure function should only be called if there is an open path bracket in the
specified device context.
A figure in a path is open unless it is explicitly closed by using this
function. (A figure can be open even if the current point and the starting point of
the figure are the same.)
After a call to CloseFigure, adding a line or curve to the path starts a new figure.
