Elements

	kPDEMoveTo	Designates the m (`moveto`) operator, which moves the current point.

	kPDELineTo	Designates the l (`lineto`) operator, which appends a straight line segment from the current point.

	kPDECurveTo	Designates the c (`curveto`) operator, which appends a bezier curve to the path.

	kPDECurveToV	Designates the v (`curveto`) operator, which appends a bezier curve to the current path when the first control point coincides with initial point on the curve.

	kPDECurveToY	Designates the y (`curveto`) operator, which appends a bezier curve to the current path when the second control point coincides with final point on the curve.

	kPDERect	Designates the re operator, which adds a rectangle to the current path.

	kPDEClosePath	Designates the h (`closepath`) operator, which closes the current sub-path.

	kPDEPathLastType	Designates a special path element which is used as a default. It does not represent any actual path operations like moveto, lineto, etc.

File: PEExpT.h

Line: 1744

Elements

	kPDEInvisible	The path is neither stroked nor filled, so it is invisible.

	kPDEStroke	Stroke the path, as with the S (`stroke`) operator.

	kPDEFill	Fills the path, using the nonzero winding number rule to determine the region to fill, as with the f (`fill`) operator.

	kPDEEoFill	Fills the path, using the even/odd rule to determine the region to fill, as with the f* (`eofill`) operator.

PDEPathCreate

()

Product availability: PDFL

Syntax





PDEPath PDEPathCreate()

Creates an empty path element.

Call PDERelease() to dispose of the returned path object when finished with it.

Returns

An empty path element.

PDEPathGetData

()

Product availability: PDFL

Platform availability: Macintosh, Windows, UNIX

Syntax





ASUns32 PDEPathGetData(INPDEPath path, OUTASInt32* data, INASUns32 dataSize)

Gets the size of the path data and, optionally, the path data.

Parameters

	`path` —	IN/OUT The path whose data is obtained.

	`data` —	IN/OUT (Filled by the method) A pointer to the path data. If `data` is non-`NULL`, it contains a variable-sized array of path operators and operands. The format is a 32-bit operator followed by 0 to 3 ASFixedPoint values, depending on the operator. Opcodes are codes for `moveto`, `lineto`, `curveto`, `rect`, or `closepath` operators; operands are ASFixedPoint values. If `data` is `NULL`, the number of bytes required for `data` is returned by the method. Note that it returns raw path data. If you want the points in page coordinates, concatenate the path data points with the PDEElement matrix obtained from PDEElementGetMatrix().

	`dataSize` —	IN/OUT Specifies the size of the buffer provided in data. If it is less than the length of the path data, the method copies `dataSize` bytes.

Returns

The length of the data of path.
