Description: This statement draws a pie shaped wedge on the screen.
Returns: Nothing
Usage: Steady State
Format: Pie(X, Y, Radius, Angle1, Angle2, Foreground, Pattern, Background)
Parameters: X { numeric } { required } { no default: }
Any numeric expression giving the X coordinate of the center of the pie on the screen.
Y { numeric } { required } { no default: }
Any numeric expression giving the Y coordinate of the center of the pie on the screen.
Radius { numeric } { required } { no default: }
Any numeric expression giving the radius of the pie specified in units of X screen coordinates.
Angle1 { numeric } { required } { no default: }
Any numeric expression giving the starting angle of the pie in radians. An angle of 0 lies on the X axis to the right of the center of the pie.
Angle2 { numeric } { required } { no default: }
Any numeric expression giving the ending angle of the pie in radians.
Foreground { numeric } { required } { no default: }
Any numeric expression giving the color index for the foreground color of the pie fill pattern.
Pattern { numeric } { required } { no default: }
Any numeric expression giving the hatch pattern to use for the fill. The valid hatch style numbers are from 1 to 25 inclusive.
Background { numeric } { required } { no default: }
Any numeric expression giving the background color for the hatch pattern. This value is only significant if the Pattern parameter is not equal to 1.
Comments: This statement has been superseded by the GUIPie function and is maintained for backwards compatibility only.
It is a non-destructive graphic statement that exclusive OR's with the existing background.
The pie is drawn in a counterclockwise direction from the Angle1 to Angle2. It is a non-destructive graphic statement that exclusive OR's with the existing background.
Example:
Pie(100,200 { X-Y coordinates for the center of the pie },
200 { Radius in pixels },
0 { Start angle (3 o'clock position) },
3.14 { Draw counterclockwise for 180 degrees },
10, 1, 0 { Light green solid (background ignored });
This draws the top half of a light green circle.
