Arguments: stream
Begins collecting subsequent line-drawing function calls on
stream into a "path". Must be followed by a call
to end-drawing-path at some point,
which actually draws the entire path. stream
should be a cg-stream.
A path is useful for filling a collection of lines and curves as a
unit. It is also needed in Windows 95/98 (as opposed to NT) in order
to use line-end
and line-join
styles other than :round.
To ensure that end-drawing-path is always called for each call to begin-drawing-path, it is convenient to use with-drawing-path instead of separate calls to begin-drawing-path and end-drawing-path. See also: line-end, with-line-end, line-join, with-line-join, end-drawing-path, and with-drawing-path.
