  • A TRect value.If the bounding rectangle is a square, a circle is drawn.The ellipse is outlined using the value of Pen, and filled using the value of Brush.

    Note: On Windows 9x or Windows ME, the sums X1 + X2 and Y1 + Y2 cannot exceed 32768. Also, the sum X1 + X2 + Y1 + Y2 cannot exceed 32768.
