Introduction

Graphical output is performed using the following objects:

Graphical Output
Circle	draws circles, arcs and pie charts
Ellipse	draws ellipses
Marker	draws a series of polymarkers
Poly	draws lines
Rect	draws rectangles
Image	displays or prints Bitmaps, Icons and Metafiles
Text	displays or prints graphical text

These graphical objects can be drawn in (that is, be the children of) a wide range of other objects including a Form, Static, Printer and Bitmap.

Additional graphical resources are provided by the following objects. These are unusual in that they are not visible except when referenced as the property of another object:

Resource
Font	loads a font
Bitmap	defines a bitmap
Icon	defines an icon
Metafile	loads a Windows Metafile

Graphical objects are created, like any other object, using ⎕WC and have properties that can be changed using ⎕WS and queried using ⎕WG. Graphical objects also generate certain events.
