public virtual void DrawArc( 
   Rectangle rectangle,
   Point firstRadial,
   Point secondRadial
)

Parameters

rectangle: A System.Drawing.Rectangle specifies the bounding rectangle.
firstRadial: A System.Drawing.Point specifies the ending point of the radial line defining the starting point of the arc.
secondRadial: A System.Drawing.Point specifies the ending point of the radial line defining the ending point of the arc.

Exceptions

Exception	Description
C1.Framework.SystemErrorException	Defines an exception class to handle the system error.

Remarks

The rectangle specify the bounding rectangle. An ellipse formed by the specified bounding rectangle defines the curve of the arc. The arc extends in the current drawing direction from the point where it intersects the radial from the center of the bounding rectangle to the firstRadial point. The arc ends where it intersects the radial from the center of the bounding rectangle to the secondRadial point. If the starting point and ending point are the same, a complete ellipse is drawn.
