AddEllipseToPath Method (GdPicturePDF)
                In This Topic
            
            Appends an ellipse, using the sequence of cubic Bézier curves, to the currently constructed path, defined within a currently selected page of the loaded PDF document. Be aware of your currently defined graphics state parameters, that subsequent filling and stroking operations applied onto the constructed path put into effect. 
The ellipse is clearly defined by the center and the dimensions of its bounding box. All these coordinates need to be set in the current units defined in the PDF document with respect to the currently located origin, related to the actual page. You can use the GdPicturePDF.GetMeasurementUnit method to determine the currently defined units and you can use the GdPicturePDF.SetMeasurementUnit method to reset the units according to your preference.

- The horizontal (X) coordinate of the ellipse's center, expressed in the current units specified by the SetMeasurementUnit method with respect to the defined origin, related to the currently selected page.
- CenterY
- The vertical (Y) coordinate of the ellipse's center, expressed in the current units specified by the SetMeasurementUnit method with respect to the defined origin, related to the currently selected page.
- Width
- The width of the ellipse's bounding box, expressed in the current units specified by the SetMeasurementUnit method.
- Height
- The height of the ellipse's bounding box, expressed in the current units specified by the SetMeasurementUnit method.
Return Value
A member of the GdPictureStatus enumeration. If the method has been successfully followed, then the return value is GdPictureStatus.OK. 
We strongly recommend always checking this status first.
