TWidgetSet.CreatePolygonRgn function

Member of TWidgetSetpublicIn unit InterfaceBase

Creates a polygonal region.

Declaration

pascal
function CreatePolygonRgn(Points: PPoint; NumPts: Integer; 
 FillMode: Integer): HRGN; virtual

Arguments

Points

The array of points.

NumPts

The number of points in Points.

FillMode

Can be ALTERNATE or WINDING.

Function result

The region Handle, zero on failure.

Description

The Points parameter is an array of points that give the vertices of the polygon. The connections between two points can cross others.

FillMode determines what points are going to be included in the region. When FillMode=Winding points are selected by using the Winding fill algorithm. When FillMode=ALTERNATE points are selected by using using the even-odd (alternative) fill algorithm.

The last point is connected to the first point to close the region.
