How exactly can you make a circle?? I've seen that you do it with an elipse function. If it is an ellipse how can you reshape it to a circle?? Sorry...I am a bigginer to windows programming. I am into GDI...and want to understand it so I can make a simple pong game...with GDI before advancing into DirectX and COM stuff...
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!!!
Are you using MFC or WIN32?
Elipse() takes a rectangle. If you send in a square it will draw a circle.
You can also draw a point with a very thick pen..
for a pen with a dot (circle) 20 pixel in diameter
HPEN hPen=CreatePen(PS_SOLID, 20, RGB(255, 255, 255) );
RGB(255, 255, 255) is the colour. Red, Green, Blue from 0 - 255 where 0 = blackest (no colour) and 255 = white (max colour).
