MFC: Drawing Overlapping Circles

[TechAvtar]

Hi, I am trying to draw two circles, which are overlapping . My problem is that the second circle is hiding the first one partially. I want to see both circles completely. Can somebody guide me what parameter should I tweak? afx_msg void DemoWin::OnPaint () { CPaintDC dc(this); CRect myRect; /* Define rectangle coordinates */ myRect.top = 0; myRect.left = 0; myRect.bottom = 200; myRect.right = 100; dc.Ellipse(myRect); myRect.top = 100; myRect.left = 50; myRect.bottom = 200; myRect.right = 200; dc.Ellipse(myRect); } Thanks Jacob

What do you mean exactly ? :confused: You want the colors of the two circles to be merged ? For instance one circle is white and the other one is white, then the intersection should be gray ?

You can select a NULL brush to the device context before drawing the ellipse. ... dc.SelectObject(GetStockObject(NULL_BRUSH)); dc.Ellipse(myRect); ...
