Path

Represents a path consisting of linear or cubic Bézier curve segments (see example).

options OptionsStore

The configuration of this element.

segments Segment[]

A collection of the path segments.

Constructors

Path (options?: ShapeOptions)

Creates a new Path with the specified options.

Parameters

options? ShapeOptions

The configuration options.

Methods

arc

Draws an arc segment with the specified parameters. Angles increase in a clockwise direction with 0 (zero) pointing "right". Negative values or values greater than 360 are normalized.

Parameters

startAngle number

The start angle of the arc in decimal degrees.

endAngle number

The end angle of the arc in decimal degrees.

rx number

The X radius of the arc.

ry number

The Y radius of the arc.

anticlockwise? boolean

A flag indicating if the arc should be drawn in a clockwise or anticlockwise direction. By default, it is drawn clockwise.

Returns

Path - The current instance to allow chaining.

arcTo

Draws an arc segment to the specified point. The parameters are based on the SVG Arc syntax.

Parameters

end number

The end point of the arc.

rx number

The x radius of the arc.

ry number

The y radius of the arc.

largeArc boolean

A flag indicating if the arc should be greater or less than 180 degrees.

sweep boolean

A flag indicating if the arc should begin moving at negative or positive angles.

Returns

Path - The current instance to allow chaining.

bbox

Returns the bounding box of the element with applied transformations.

Returns

Rect - The bounding box of the element with transformations applied.

className

Gets the class attribute of the element. The class will be rendered only for SVG output.

Returns

string the value of the class attribute of the element.

className

Sets the class attribute of the element. The class will be rendered only for SVG output.

Parameters

className string

The value of the class attribute.

clip

Gets the clipping path for this element.

Returns

Path - The clipping path for this element.

clip

Sets the clipping path for this element. The Path instance will be monitored for changes. Can be replaced by calling the clip method.

The following example demonstrates how to set a clipping path on a Circle.

The following example demonstrates how to clear a clipping path.

Parameters

clip Path

The element clipping path.

clippedBBox

Returns the bounding box of the element with clipping and transformations applied. This is the rectangle that will fit around the actual rendered element.

Returns

Rect - The bounding box of the element with clipping and transformations applied.

close

Closes the path by linking the current end point with the start point.

Returns

Path - The current instance to allow chaining.

containsPoint

Returns true if the shape contains the specified point.

Parameters

point Point

The point that should be checked.

Returns

boolean value indicating if the shape contains the point.

curveTo

Draws a cubic Bézier curve (with two control points). A quadratic Bézier curve (with one control point) can be plotted by making the control point equal.

Parameters

controlOut Point | number[]

The first control point for the curve.

controlIn Point | number[]

The second control point for the curve.

endPoint Point | number[]

The curve end point.

Returns

Path - The current instance to allow chaining.

fill

Sets the fill of the Shape (see the basic usage example).

Parameters

color string

The fill color to set.

opacity? number

The fill opacity to set.

Returns

Path - The current instance to allow chaining.

lineTo

Draws a straight line to the specified absolute coordinates.

Parameters

x number

The end X coordinate of the line.

y number

The end Y coordinate of the line.

Returns

Path - The current instance to allow chaining.

lineTo

Draws a straight line to the specified absolute coordinates.

Parameters

point Point

The end point of the line.

Returns

Path - The current instance to allow chaining.

moveTo

Clears all existing segments and moves the starting point to the specified absolute coordinates.

Parameters

x number

The starting X coordinate.

y number

The starting Y coordinate.

Returns

Path - The current instance to allow chaining.

moveTo

Clears all existing segments and moves the starting point to the specified absolute coordinates.

Parameters

point Point

The end point of the line.

Returns

Path - The current instance to allow chaining.

opacity

Gets the element opacity.

Returns

number The current element opacity.

opacity

Sets the opacity of the element.

Parameters

opacity number

The element opacity. Ranges from 0 (completely transparent) to 1 (completely opaque).

stroke

Sets the stroke of the Shape.

Parameters

color string

The stroke color to set.

width? number

The stroke width to set.

opacity? number

The stroke opacity to set.

Returns

Path - The current instance to allow chaining.

toString

Converts the path to a string using the SVG path syntax. The parse method can convert the string back to a path. Only the path shape is preserved in the string.

Parameters

digits? number

Number of decimal digits to round point coordinates to.

Returns

string - The path shape represented using SVG syntax.

transform

Gets the transformation of the element.

Returns

Transformation - The current transformation on the element.

transform

Sets the transformation of the element.

Parameters

transform Transformation

The transformation to apply to the element.

visible

Gets the visibility of the element.

Returns

boolean true if the element is visible. Otherwise, returns false.

visible

Sets the visibility of the element.

Parameters

visible boolean

A flag which indicates if the element will be visible.
