# `wxGraphicsPath`
[🔗](https://github.com/erlang/otp/blob/master/lib/wx/src/gen/wxGraphicsPath.erl#L58)

A `m:wxGraphicsPath` is a native representation of a geometric path.

The contents are specific and private to the respective renderer. Instances are reference
counted and can therefore be assigned as usual. The only way to get a valid instance is by
using `wxGraphicsContext:createPath/1` or `wxGraphicsRenderer:createPath/1`.

This class is derived, and can use functions, from:

* `m:wxGraphicsObject`

# `wxGraphicsPath`

```elixir
-type wxGraphicsPath() :: wx:wx_object().
```

# `addArc`

```elixir
-spec addArc(This, C, R, StartAngle, EndAngle, Clockwise) -> ok
                when
                    This :: wxGraphicsPath(),
                    C :: {X :: float(), Y :: float()},
                    R :: number(),
                    StartAngle :: number(),
                    EndAngle :: number(),
                    Clockwise :: boolean().
```

# `addArc`

```elixir
-spec addArc(This, X, Y, R, StartAngle, EndAngle, Clockwise) -> ok
                when
                    This :: wxGraphicsPath(),
                    X :: number(),
                    Y :: number(),
                    R :: number(),
                    StartAngle :: number(),
                    EndAngle :: number(),
                    Clockwise :: boolean().
```

Adds an arc of a circle.

The circle is defined by the coordinates of its centre (`x`, `y`) or `c` and its radius `r`.
The arc goes from the starting angle `startAngle` to `endAngle` either clockwise or
counter-clockwise depending on the value of `clockwise` argument.

The angles are measured in radians but, contrary to the usual mathematical convention,
are always `clockwise` from the horizontal axis.

If for clockwise arc `endAngle` is less than `startAngle` it will be progressively
increased by 2*pi until it is greater than `startAngle`. If for counter-clockwise arc `endAngle`
is greater than `startAngle` it will be progressively decreased by 2*pi until it is less
than `startAngle`.

If there is a current point set, an initial line segment will be added to the path to
connect the current point to the beginning of the arc.

# `addArcToPoint`

```elixir
-spec addArcToPoint(This, X1, Y1, X2, Y2, R) -> ok
                       when
                           This :: wxGraphicsPath(),
                           X1 :: number(),
                           Y1 :: number(),
                           X2 :: number(),
                           Y2 :: number(),
                           R :: number().
```

Adds an arc (of a circle with radius `r`) that is tangent to the line connecting current
point and (`x1`, `y1`) and to the line connecting (`x1`, `y1`) and (`x2`, `y2`).

If the current point and the starting point of the arc are different, a straight line
connecting these points is also appended. If there is no current point before the call to `addArcToPoint/6`
this function will behave as if preceded by a call to MoveToPoint(0, 0). After this call
the current point will be at the ending point of the arc.

# `addCircle`

```elixir
-spec addCircle(This, X, Y, R) -> ok
                   when This :: wxGraphicsPath(), X :: number(), Y :: number(), R :: number().
```

Appends a circle around (`x`,`y`) with radius `r` as a new closed subpath.

After this call the current point will be at (x+`r`, `y`).

                             This :: wxGraphicsPath(),
                             C1 :: {X :: float(), Y :: float()},
                             C2 :: {X :: float(), Y :: float()},
                             E :: {X :: float(), Y :: float()}.
```

by a call to MoveToPoint(`c1`).

-spec addCurveToPoint(This, Cx1, Cy1, Cx2, Cy2, X, Y) -> ok
                         when
                             This :: wxGraphicsPath(),
                             Cx1 :: number(),

```elixir
-spec addEllipse(This, X, Y, W, H) -> ok
                    when
                        This :: wxGraphicsPath(),

is called.
