Class usage and Overview
This is mainly awrapper class around thye current image class used. It is meant to make it easier to work with a Canvas graph and a Canvas scale. Basically the class uses the specified scale to trasnalte coordinates which is then passed on to the standard Image routines.

Class Methods

 

 

function Bezier($p,$aSteps)
Draw a bezier curve

ArgumentDefaultDescription
$p  Array with control points
$aSteps 40 Number of line segments in curve

Description
Draw a Bezier line with specified in the $p array. The points are specified according to the current scale. The positions in the array has the following meaning

(0,1) x0,y0 (First point on curver)
(2,3) x,y, (Control point 1)
(4,5) x,y, (Control point 2)
(6,7) x,y, (End point of curve)

See example in canvasbezierex1.php  

Example

$p = array(3,6,6,9,5,3,7,4);

$shape->SetColor('black');
$shape->Bezier($p);

 

 

function Circle($x1,$y1,$r)
Draw a circle

ArgumentDefaultDescription
$x1  Center X-coordinate
$y1  Center Y-coordinate
$r  Radius

Description
Draw a circle onto the canvas  
 
See also
Image::Circle

Example

// The shape class is wrapper around the Imgae class which translates
// the coordinates for us
$shape = new Shape($g,$scale);
$shape->SetColor('black');


// .. and a circle (x,y,diameter)
$shape->Circle(5,14,2);


 

 

function FilledCircle($x1,$y1,$r)
Draw a filled circle to a canvas

ArgumentDefaultDescription
$x1  Center X-coordinate
$y1  Center Y-coordinate
$r  Radius

Description
Draw a filled circle on the canvas using the specified scale.

Note: If you are using GD1.xx you will see moire-patterns in large circles. This is due to the lack of a proper filled circle function in GD 1.xx. Using GD 2.xx will avoid this problem.
