SYMPTOMS
========

When calling Pie() with a wide pen selected, the vertex of the pie slice is not
drawn correctly. The wide lines do not meet at the vertex.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in Windows versions 3.0 and 3.1. We are
researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft
Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

MORE INFORMATION
================

This behavior may be reproduced as follows on an 8514 display:

With a pen of width of about 30, call Pie() with the following parameters:

  X1=197, Y1=179, X2=969, Y2=638, X3=334, Y3=525, X4=810, Y4=181

At the center of the pie, the wide lines forming the vertex of the pie slice do
not meet flush. A wedge is not filled in.
