CairoContext::copyPathFlat

cairo_copy_path_flat

Gets a flattened copy of the current path

Description

Object oriented style (method):

public CairoPath CairoContext::copyPathFlat ( void )

Procedural style:

CairoPath cairo_copy_path_flat ( CairoContext $context )

Gets a flattened copy of the current path and returns it to the user as a CairoPath.

This function is like CairoContext::copyPath except that any curves in the path will be approximated with piecewise-linear approximations, (accurate to within the current tolerance value). That is, the result is guaranteed to not have any elements of type CAIRO_PATH_CURVE_TO which will instead be replaced by a series of CAIRO_PATH_LINE_TO elements.

Parameters

context

A CairoContext object

Return Values

A copy of the current path

Examples

Example #1 Object oriented style

<?php

$surface 
= new CairoImageSurface(CairoFormat::ARGB325050);

$context = new CairoContext($surface);

var_dump($context->copyPathFlat());

?>

The above example will output something similar to:

object(CairoPath)#3 (0) {
}

Example #2 Procedural style

<?php

$surface 
cairo_image_surface_create(CAIRO_FORMAT_ARGB325050);

$context cairo_create($surface);

var_dump(cairo_copy_path_flat($context));

?>

The above example will output something similar to:

object(CairoPath)#3 (0) {
}
