The output geometry is fill-mode invariant; that is, the fill of the geometry does not depend on the choice of the fill mode. For more information about the fill mode, see <a href="C1.UWP.DX~C1.Util.DX.Direct2D.FillMode.html">FillMode</a>.Additionally, the {{Outline}} method can be useful in removing redundant portions of said geometries to simplify complex geometries. It can also be useful in combination with <a href="C1.UWP.DX~C1.Util.DX.Direct2D.GeometryGroup.html">GeometryGroup</a> to create unions among several geometries simultaneously.</div> <a name="exampleBookmark"></a> <a name="seealsobookmark"></a> <div class="SectionHeading" id="seealsoSectionHeading"><span class="SectionHeadingIcon"><!-- --></span><span class="SectionHeadingText">See Also</span></div><div id="seealsoSectionContent" class="SectionContent"><h4 class="subHeading">Reference</h4><p><a href="C1.UWP.DX~C1.Util.DX.Direct2D.Geometry.html">Geometry Class</a> <br><a href="C1.UWP.DX~C1.Util.DX.Direct2D.Geometry_members.html">Geometry Members</a> <br><a href="C1.UWP.DX~C1.Util.DX.Direct2D.Geometry~Outline.html">Overload List</a> </p> </div> </div> <div id="FooterContent"> <p> </p><p> </p><hr style="height: 1px"><p>Copyright © <script type="text/javascript"> var theDate=new Date() document.write(theDate.getFullYear()) </script> GrapeCity, inc.
