# Constructing and Drawing Paths
A path is a sequence of graphics primitives (lines, rectangles, curves, text, and the like) that can be manipulated and drawn as a single unit. A path can be divided into *figures* that are either open or closed. A figure can contain several primitives.
You can draw a path by calling the <xref:System.Drawing.Graphics.DrawPath%2A> method of the <xref:System.Drawing.Graphics> class, and you can fill a path by calling the <xref:System.Drawing.Graphics.FillPath%2A> method of the <xref:System.Drawing.Graphics> class.
## In This Section
[How to: Create Figures from Lines, Curves, and Shapes](how-to-create-figures-from-lines-curves-and-shapes.md)
Shows how to use a <xref:System.Drawing.Drawing2D.GraphicsPath> to create figures.
[How to: Fill Open Figures](how-to-fill-open-figures.md)
Explains how to fill a <xref:System.Drawing.Drawing2D.GraphicsPath>.
[How to: Flatten a Curved Path into a Line](how-to-flatten-a-curved-path-into-a-line.md)
Shows how to flatten a <xref:System.Drawing.Drawing2D.GraphicsPath>.
## Reference
