ElementReaderPatternBegin Method (Boolean, Boolean)

public void PatternBegin(
	bool fill_pattern,
	bool reset_ctm_tfm
)

Public Sub PatternBegin ( 
	fill_pattern As Boolean,
	reset_ctm_tfm As Boolean
)

public:
virtual void PatternBegin(
	[InAttribute] bool fill_pattern, 
	[InAttribute] bool reset_ctm_tfm
) sealed

function PatternBegin(fill_pattern, reset_ctm_tfm);

Parameters

fill_pattern

Type: SystemBoolean
If true, the filling pattern of the current element will be spawned; otherwise, the stroking pattern of the current element will be spawned. Note that the graphics state will be inherited from the parent content stream (the content stream in which the pattern is defined as a resource) automatically.

reset_ctm_tfm

Type: SystemBoolean
An optional parameter used to indicate whether the pattern's display list should set its initial CTM and transformation matrices to identity matrix. In general, we should leave it to be false. To open a tiling pattern sub-display list use PatternBegin() method. The Next() returned Element will be the first Element in the pattern display list. Subsequent calls to Next() will traverse pattern's display list until NULL is encountered. At any point you can close the pattern sub-list using ElementReader::End() method. After the pattern display list is closed, the processing will return to the parent display list at the point where pattern display list was spawned.
