chord x_position, y_expr, width_expr, height_expr, startangle_expr, widthangle_expr
chord ( x_position, y_expr, width_expr, height_expr, startangle_expr, widthangle_expr )

Draws an area bounded by an arc and chord (segment) of the circle or ellipse inside the bounding rectangle defined by x_position, y_expr, width_expr, and height_expr. The center of the circle/ellipse will be in the center of the rectangle. The angles are defined from the 12 o'clock position in a clockwise direction in radians.

As seen in the example below a chord may be used to draw a filled circle or an ellipse by defining the angular width to go all the way around (2*pi).
