Canvas.clipPath(Path) not clipping as expected

Question

I\'m trying to clip a canvas drawing operation to an arc-shaped wedge. However, I\'m not getting the intended result after setting the clipping path to the canvas.

Answer 1

OP's question is specifically about using a clipping region and has been answered by @Simon. Bear in mind, however, that there's a more straightforward way of drawing a filled arc:

Create a Paint:

mPaint = new Paint();
mPaint.setColor(Color.BLUE);
mPaint.setStyle(Style.FILL);
mPaint.setAntiAlias(true);

When drawing, simply draw the path:

canvas.drawPath(path, mPaint);

Answer 2

Are you using HC or above or otherwise using hardware acceleration?

If so, clipPath is unsupported and problematic.
