Description

The GDRAW('ELLARC', . . . ) function draws a hollow section of an ellipse. The line attributes and bundles affect the appearance of this primitive. See DATA Step Graphics Interface Routines for a list of these attributes. Arguments Used with GDRAW('ELLARC',...) function and GDRAW('ELLIPSE',...) function illustrates the arguments used with GDRAW('ELLARC', . . . ) and GDRAW('ELLIPSE', . . . ).

Argument Definitions

x numeric constant or numeric variable name; x coordinates are in units based on the current window system.

y numeric constant or numeric variable name; y coordinates are in units based on the current window system.

major numeric constant or numeric variable name; the major axis lengths for the elliptical arc.

minor numeric constant or numeric variable name; the minor axis lengths for the elliptical arc.

start numeric constant or numeric variable name; the starting angle from the major axis, in degrees, for the elliptical arc with 0 degrees beginning at the major axis.

end numeric constant or numeric variable name; the ending angle from the major axis, in degrees, for the elliptical arc with 0 degrees at 3 o'clock.

angle numeric constant or numeric variable name; the angle that the major axis of the elliptical arc has to 0 degrees (with 0 degrees at 3 o'clock).
