Inside Macintosh: QuickDraw GX Graphics /
Chapter 2 - Geometric Shapes / Applying Functions Described Elsewhere to Geometric Shapes


Other Functions Applicable to Geometric Shapes

You can apply any of the geometric operations described in Chapter 4, "Geometric Operations," to the geometric shapes.

Geometric shapes make use of the geometric properties of their style objects. For this reason, you may apply shape-based functions (such as GXSetShapePen, GXSetShapeDash, and so on) described in Chapter 3, "Geometric Styles," to geometric shapes.

You may also apply any of the shape-based functions in the chapter "Typographic Styles" in Inside Macintosh: QuickDraw GX Typography to geometric shapes. However, these functions do not affect the way geometric shapes appear when drawn.

You may apply any of the shape-based functions described in the chapter "Ink Objects" in Inside Macintosh: QuickDraw GX Typography to geometric shapes. These functions include GXSetShapeColor, GXSetShapeTransfer, GXSetShapeInkAttributes, and so on.

You may apply any of the shape-based functions described in the chapter "Transform Objects" in Inside Macintosh: QuickDraw GX Typography to geometric shapes. These functions include GXSetShapeClip, GXSetShapeMapping, GXSetShapeHitTest, and so on.
