Function Reference


_GDIPlus_PathBrushCreate

Creates a PathGradientBrush object based on an array of points and initializes the wrap mode of the brush

#include <GDIPlus.au3>
_GDIPlus_PathBrushCreate ( $aPoints [, $iWrapMode = 0] )

Parameters

$aPoints Array of points that specify the boundary path of the path gradient brush
    [0][0] - Number of points
    [1][0] - Point 1 X coordinate
    [1][1] - Point 1 Y coordinate
    [2][0] - Point 2 X coordinate
    [2][1] - Point 2 Y coordinate
    [n][0] - Point n X coordinate
    [n][1] - Point n Y coordinate
$iWrapMode [optional] Wrap mode that specifies how areas filled with the brush are tiled:
    0 - Tiling without flipping
    1 - Tiles are flipped horizontally as you move from one tile to the next in a row
    2 - Tiles are flipped vertically as you move from one tile to the next in a column
    3 - Tiles are flipped horizontally as you move along a row and flipped vertically as you move along a column
    4 - No tiling takes place

Return Value

Success: a pointer to a new PathGradientBrush object.
Failure: 0 and sets the @error flag to non-zero, @extended may contain GPSTATUS ($GPIP_ERR* see GPIPlusConstants.au3).

Remarks

After you are done with the object, call _GDIPlus_BrushDispose() to release the object resources.
