Ellipse()

Syntax

Ellipse(x, y, RadiusX, RadiusY [, Color])
Description
Draw an ellipse in the current drawing output. The filling mode is determined by DrawingMode(). The current output is set with StartDrawing().

Parameters

x, y The position of the center pixel of the ellipse.
RadiusX, RadiusY The radius of the ellipse in the x and y direction. The center pixel is not included in these values.
Color (optional) The color to be used for the ellipse. If this parameter is not specified, the default color set with FrontColor() will be used. This color can be in RGB or RGBA format.

Return value

None.

Example

  If OpenWindow(0, 0, 0, 200, 200, "2DDrawing Example", #PB_Window_SystemMenu | #PB_Window_ScreenCentered)
    If CreateImage(0, 200, 200) And StartDrawing(ImageOutput(0))
      Box(0, 0, 200, 200, RGB(255, 255, 255))
      For radius=50 To 10 Step -10
        Ellipse(100, 100, radius*2, radius, RGB(Random(255), Random(255), Random(255)))
      Next radius
      StopDrawing() 
      ImageGadget(0, 0, 0, 200, 200, ImageID(0))
    EndIf
    
    Repeat
      Event = WaitWindowEvent()
    Until Event = #PB_Event_CloseWindow
  EndIf
