Usage
The arc is a segment of an ellipse whose bounding rectangle is defined in ArcRect. ArcTheta specifies the
starting point of the arc in degrees. Zero corresponds to twelve o’clock, 90 to three o’clock, 180 to six
o’clock, and 270 to nine o’clock. ArcDTheta corresponds to the length of the arc. Positive and negative
values correspond to clockwise and counterclockwise extents.
