Provides access to members that control properties of elliptic arc segments.
An Elliptic Arc is an object that describes any portion of an ellipse. The Major axis of the Elliptic Arc is the largest axis spanning between points on opposite sides of the ellipse. The Minor axis is the perpendicular bisector of the Major axis. Together, the Major and Minor axes determine the full ellipse on which the Elliptic Arc is generated. These parameters may also be specified in terms of the semi-Major axis (half of the Major axis) and the MinorMajorRatio (the ratio of the Minor axis to the Major axis). The ellipse may also be rotated. Rotation is described by the Rotation Angle. However, the effect of the Rotation Angle depends on the value of EllipseStd. If EllipseStd is TRUE, all angles and axes are calculated with respect to the Major Axis as though the Major Axis was at 0 radians. Also, the location of the From Point and To Point are given relative to the Center Point as though it is the origin. If EllipseStd is FALSE, all angles are caluclated in standard Cartesian coordinates. The portion of the complete ellipse represented by the Elliptic Arc is determined by the From Angle and Central Angle, both measured in radians.
A CircularArc is a special case of an EllipticArc where the MinorMajorRatio is 1 (however, a CircularArc is NOT an EllipticArc).

throws java.io.IOException,
AutomationException
Given the EllipseStd value, returns the Center Point, From Point, To Point, Rotation Angle, Minor Axis to Major Axis Ratio, IsCounterClockwise value, and IsMinor value of the Elliptic Arc. If EllipseStd = TRUE, the From Point and To Point locations are relative offsets from the Center Point rather than the origin.
These are the necessary inputs for PutCoords, except in special cases (half ellipse, full ellipse, Central Angle = 0, and Minor to Major Ratio = 0) where the ArcOrientation must know which of these cases exists to ensure that the desired Elliptic Arc is unambiguous. Any of the output parameters can be set to nil if that info is not desired.

throws java.io.IOException,
AutomationException
PutCoords creates an Elliptic Arc given the EllipseStd value, Center Point, From Point, To Point, Rotation Angle, Minor Axis to Major Axis Ratio, and the Arc Orientation. If EllipseStd = TRUE, the From Point and To Point locations are relative offsets from the Center Point rather than the origin.
Unless the coordinates of the From and To Points are exactly on the defined Elliptic Arc, PutCoords is likely to create an invalid Elliptic Arc. Therefore, it is highly recommended that another Elliptic Arc creation method is used unless all of the necessary input parameters are exactly known.

throws java.io.IOException,

Given the EllipseStd value, returns the Center Point, From Angle, Central Angle, Rotation Angle, semi-Major axis length, and Minor Axis to Major Axis Ratio for the Elliptic Arc. These are the same parameters used by PutCoordsByAngle to create the Elliptic Arc. If EllipseStd = TRUE, the From Angle is relative to the rotated semi-Major Axis rather than the X-Axis.

public void putCoordsByAngle(boolean ellipseStd,

throws java.io.IOException,
AutomationException
Creates an Elliptic Arc given the EllipseStd value, Center Point, From Angle, Central Angle, Rotation Angle, semi-Major Axis length, and Minor Axis to Major Axis Ratio. If EllipseStd = TRUE, the From Angle is relative to the rotated semi-Major Axis rather than the X-Axis.
This is the recommended way to create an arbitrary Elliptic Arc. However, due to numeric accuracy limitations of computers and trigonometric functions, the From and To Points may be very slightly offset from the expected coordinates. This is important to keep in mind when attempting to connect the endpoints to other segments.

public IPoint getCenterPoint()
throws java.io.IOException,
AutomationException
The CenterPoint is the point where the Major Axis and Minor Axis of the EllipticArc intersect. The CenterPoint is the point from which all angles and distances are calculated to create the EllipticArc.
java.io.IOException - If there are interop problems.
AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.
public void queryCenterPoint(IPoint center)
throws java.io.IOException,
AutomationException
The CenterPoint is the point where the Major Axis and Minor Axis of the EllipticArc intersect. The CenterPoint is the point from which all angles and distances are calculated to create the EllipticArc. You must instantiate the Point before calling QueryCenterPoint. For example,
Dim pPoint as IPoint Set pPoint = New Point
The QueryCenterPoint method should be used in performance critical situations, where the center point of several arcs needs to be retrieved. The point is populated (not created) by the method. For example, this can be used to get the center point of several arcs in a loop. Creating the point only once outside the loop may improve performance for large number of arcs.

public double getFromAngle(boolean ellipseStd)
throws java.io.IOException,
AutomationException
The From Angle is the angle of the Line defined by the Center Point and the From Point of the Elliptic Arc. Setting the From Angle changes the From Point of the Elliptic Arc without altering the embedded geometry. The From Angle is measured in radians (there are 2*pi radians in a full ellipse). If EllipseStd = TRUE, the From Angle is relative to the rotated semi-Major Axis rather than the X-Axis.

Setting the To Angle changes the To Point of the Elliptic Arc without altering the embedded geometry. The To Angle is measured in radians (there are 2*pi radians in a full ellipse). If EllipseStd = TRUE, the To Angle is relative to the rotated semi-Major Axis rather than the X-Axis.
