al_draw_arc(3)

🦋 NAME 🦋

al_draw_arc — Allegro 5 API. 💖 This page is al_draw_arc(3) from the Library Functions Manual, so yeah, it’s giving Allegro 5 arc realness.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <allegro5/allegro_primitives.h>

void al_draw_arc(float cx, float cy, float r, float start_theta,
   float delta_theta, ALLEGRO_COLOR color, float thickness)

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

Okay bestie, al_draw_arc draws an arc. That’s the whole main-character move. ✨

Parameters:

• cx, cy — Center of the arc. Like the heartbeat of the whole shape. 💖
• r — Radius of the arc. How far out it stretches from that center. 🎀
• color — Color of the arc. Pick your aesthetic. 🎨
• start_theta — The initial angle from which the arc is calculated in radians. Radians, bestie — that’s the unit listed. 🌈
• delta_theta — Angular span of the arc in radians. And yes: pass a negative number to switch direction. 🌀
• thickness — Thickness of the arc. Pass <= 0 to draw a hairline arc. Tiny-line energy. 🧚
