Hmm, that's a good question. You might want to try the platform newsgroup
and find out if there's a way to do that with GC. Our Graphics object
delegates to GC, so if you can do it with GC's public methods, you should be
able to do the same with Graphics. However, it doesn't seem like you can do
that.
BTW, with a Shape (such as Ellipse), you shouldn't override paintFigure().
Instead override fillShape() and outlineShape() as needed.

Hi,
Perhaps, you could use clipping before painting the bounding rectangle...
