Here are the GDI functions Chord() provided by MFC:

BOOL Chord( int x1, int y1, int x2, int y2, int x3, int y3, int x4, int y4 );

BOOL Chord( LPCRECT lpRect, POINT ptStart, POINT ptEnd );

It seems to me that no such method is privided by GDI+ (the Graphics class), so how do I implement my own Chord function (with the exact same prototype) ?

By the way, I just don't understand why does MS just don't provide them.

Thanks.
