GraphicsPath

A GraphicsPath is a representaion of a geometric path, essentially a collection of lines and curves. Paths can be used to define areas to be stroked and filled on a GraphicsContext.

class GraphicsPath(GraphicsObject)

A GraphicsPath is a representaion of a geometric path, essentially a collection of lines and curves. Paths can be used to define areas to be stroked and filled on a GraphicsContext.

Methods

---

__init__(self)

---

AddArc(self, x, y, radius, startAngle, endAngle, clockwise=True)

Adds an arc of a circle centering at (x,y) with radius, from startAngle to endAngle.

---

AddArcToPoint(self, x1, y1, x2, y2, radius)

Adds a an arc to two tangents connecting (current) to (x1,y1) and (x1,y1) to (x2,y2), also a straight line from (current) to (x1,y1)

---

AddCircle(self, x, y, radius)

Appends a new closed sub-path as a circle around (x,y).

---

AddCurveToPoint(self, cx1, cy1, cx2, cy2, x, y)

Adds a cubic Bezier curve from the current point, using two control points and an end point.

---

AddEllipse(self, x, y, w, h)

Appends an elipse fitting into the given rectangle as a closed sub-path.

---

AddLineToPoint(self, x, y)

Adds a straight line from the current point to (x,y)

---

AddPath(self, path)

Appends the given path to this path.

---

AddQuadCurveToPoint(self, cx, cy, x, y)

Adds a quadratic Bexier curve from the current point, using a control point and an end point.

---

AddRectangle(self, x, y, w, h)

Adds a new rectanlge as a closed sub-path.

---

AddRoundedRectangle(self, x, y, w, h, radius)

Adds a new rounded rectanlge as a closed sub-path.

---

Clone(self)

Return a new path initialized with the current contents of this path.

---

CloseSubpath(self)

Adds a line segment to the path from the current point to the beginning of the current sub-path, and closes this sub-path.

---

Contains(self, x, y, fillStyle=ODDEVEN_RULE)

Returns True if the point lies within the path.

---

GetBox(self)

Return the bounding box enclosing all points on this path.

---

GetCurrentPoint(self)

Gets the current point of the path, which is conceptually the final point reached by the last path operation.

---

GetNativePath(self)

Returns the path as a cairo.Path object.

---

MoveToPoint(self, x, y)

Begins a new sub-path at (x,y) by moving the “current point” there.

---

Transform(self, matrix)

Transforms each point in this path by the matirx
