<div class="markdown level1 remarks"><p>Geometry groups are a convenient way to group several geometries simultaneously so all figures of several distinct geometries are concatenated into one. To create a  <a class="xref" href="C1.Util.DX.Direct2D.GeometryGroup.html">GeometryGroup</a> object, call  the CreateGeometryGroup method on the <a class="xref" href="C1.Util.DX.Direct2D.Factory.html">Factory</a> object, passing in the fillMode with possible values of   <a class="xref" href="C1.Util.DX.Direct2D.FillMode.html#C1_Util_DX_Direct2D_FillMode_Alternate">Alternate</a> (alternate) and D2D1_FILL_MODE_WINDING, an array of geometry objects to add to the geometry group, and the number of elements in this array.</p>
