Description

The GDRAW('ELLIPSE', . . . ) function draws a filled section of an ellipse. The fill 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; the x coordinate of the position of the ellipse on the display.

y numeric constant or numeric variable name; the y coordinate of the position of the ellipse on the display.

major numeric constant or numeric variable name; the major axis length for the ellipse.

minor numeric constant or numeric variable name; the minor axis length for the ellipse.

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

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

angle numeric constant or numeric variable name; the angle that the major axis of the ellipse has to 0 degrees, with 0 degrees at 3 o'clock.
