PATHS: Uses Paths for Drawing, Filling, and Clipping
The PATHS sample demonstrates the use of paths for drawing, filling,
and clipping. The program draws six different figures in the window
and labels each one. Each figure is based on the same path recreated
six times. The six figures are the result of calling the following
Microsoft® Windows™ functions (the poly fill mode is indicated in
parentheses):
 - StrokePath
 - FillPath
 - StrokeAndFill(Winding)
 - StrokeAndFill(Alternate)
 - SelectClipPath(Winding)
 - SelectClipPath(Alternate)
The Microsoft Windows NT™ version 3.1 operating system was not
available at the time this sample was acquired for the Microsoft
Developer Network CD. For this reason, the CD includes only the source
files for the sample, not the executable file or any DLLs. If you have
Windows NT version 3.1 installed on your system, you may copy the
source files to your hard drive and invoke the Windows NT make file to
build the sample.
