SVG_New_polyline

SVG_New_polyline ( parentSVGObject {; points {; foregroundColor {; backgroundColor {; strokeWidth}}}} ) -> Function result

Parameter Type   Description
parentSVGObject SVG_Ref Reference of parent element
points String Path
foregroundColor String Color or gradient name
backgroundColor String Color or gradient name
strokeWidth Real Line thickness
Function result SVG_Ref Reference of line

Description

The SVG_New_polyline command creates a new open broken line in the SVG container designated by parentSVGObject and returns its reference. If parentSVGObject is not a valid reference, an error is generated.

The optional points parameter can be used to pass the path points of the line as expected by the SVG standard. If this parameter is omitted or empty, the points may be set with the SVG_ADD_POINT command.

The optional foregroundColor and backgroundColor parameters contain, respectively, the name of the line color and of the background color. (For more information about colors, please refer to the commands of the Colors and Gradients theme).

The optional strokeWidth parameter contains the size of the pen expressed in pixels. Its default value is 1.

Example

Draw two triangles:

 $polyline:=SVG_New_polyline($svg;"10,10 200,100 10,100 10,10";"blue";"blue:50")
 $polyline:=SVG_New_polyline($svg;"";"red";"red:50")
 SVG_ADD_POINT($polyline;205;15)
 SVG_ADD_POINT($polyline;15;105)
 SVG_ADD_POINT($polyline;205;105)
 SVG_ADD_POINT($polyline;205;15)
