SWF::Shape - Shape class
use SWF::Shape; $shape = new SWF::Shape(); $dispitem = $movie->add($shape);
SWF::Shape is the fundamental object of a flash movie.
Creates a new Shape object.
Move the Shape's (imaginary) pen location to ($x, $y) in the Shape's coordinate space.
Add ($dx, $dy) to the Shape's pen current location.
getPenX()
Returns Pen's x-coordinates
getPenY()
Returns Pen's y-coordinates
getPen()
Returns Pen's (x,y) coordinates
Draw a line (using current line style, set by one of the setLine...() methods) from the current position to ($x, $y).
Draw a line (using current line style set by one of the setLine...() methods) from the current position to displacement ($dx, $dy).
Draw a quadratic curve (using current line style, set by one of the setLine...() methods) from current pen position to ($anchorx, $anchory) using control point ($controlx, $controly).
Draw a quadratic curve (using current line style, set by one of the setLine...() methods) from current pen position to displacement ($anchordx, $anchordy) using displacement control point ($controldx, $controldy).
drawCubicTo($bx,$by,$cx,$cx,$dx,$dy)
drawCubic($bx,$by,$cx,$cx,$dx,$dy)
Draw a cubic curve (using current line style). [ToDo: Add some more details and demo code]
Sets Shape's line width and color (RGB). To remove the Shape's line style call $shape->hideLine()
.
The used line width for drawing is a product of $width argument and scale value set, see SWF::setScale($scale).
Arguments $r, $g, $b stand for red, green and blue color parts, optional $a for alpha value.
This OLD deprecated method is documented here only for compatibility reason. The line width -in TWIPS units- is independent of Ming scale value (more bug than feature).
A new method available for SWF version >=8 setting shape's line width and color (RGBA) with additional
control flags (see below) and miter limit. To remove the Shape's line style call $shape->hideLine()
.
The used line width for drawing is a product of $width argument and scale value set, see SWF::setScale($scale).
Arguments $r, $g, $b, $a stand for red, green, blue and alpha color parts. $a is not optional here.
Available flags are: Line cap style: select one of the following flags (default is round cap style)
SWF_LINESTYLE_CAP_ROUND SWF_LINESTYLE_CAP_NONE SWF_LINESTYLE_CAP_SQUARE
Line join style: select one of the following flags (default is round join style)
SWF_LINESTYLE_JOIN_ROUND SWF_LINESTYLE_JOIN_BEVEL SWF_LINESTYLE_JOIN_MITER
Scaling flags: disable horizontal / vertical scaling
SWF_LINESTYLE_FLAG_NOHSCALE SWF_LINESTYLE_FLAG_NOVSCALE
Enable pixel hinting to correct blurry vertical / horizontal lines: all anchors will be aligned to full pixels
SWF_LINESTYLE_FLAG_HINTING
Disable stroke closure: if no-close flag is set caps will be applied instead of joins.
SWF_LINESTYLE_FLAG_NOCLOSE
End-cap style: default round
SWF_LINESTYLE_FLAG_ENDCAP_ROUND SWF_LINESTYLE_FLAG_ENDCAP_NONE SWF_LINESTYLE_FLAG_ENDCAP_SQUARE
If join style is SWF_LINESTYLE_JOIN_MITER a miter limit factor must be set. Miter max length is then calculated as: max miter len = miter limit * width. If join style is not miter, this value will be ignored.
This OLD deprecated method is mentioned here only for compatibility reason, you'd better use setLine2().
A new method available for SWF version >=8 setting shape's line width and fill style, $fill is an object of SWF::Fill class. For other argument details see item $shape->setLine2().
This OLD deprecated method is mentioned here only for compatibility reason, you'd better use setLine2Filled().
hideLine()
Remove the Shape's line, i.e. make lines painted after this method call invisible.
Adds a solid fill to $shape list of fill styles and returns an SWF::Fill object. This object is used with the "setLine()" method described below. The default value of $a is 0.
Adds a bitmap fill to $shape list of fill styles and returns an SWF::Fill object. This object is used with the "setLine()" method described below.
$bitmap is an SWF::Bitmap object while FLAG argument can be SWFFILL_TILED_BITMAP or SWFFILL_CLIPPED_BITMAP. Make sure to import these constants to your package before useing it, i.e. use the following statement:
use SWF::Fill <list of constants>;
The default value of FLAG is SWFFILL_TILED_BITMAP.
Adds a gradient fill to $shape list of fill styles and returns an SWF::Fill object. This object is used with the "setLine()" method described below.
$gradient is an SWF::Gradient object while FLAG argument can be SWFFILL_LINEAR_GRADIENT or SWFFILL_RADIAL_GRADIENT, plus SWFFILL_FOCAL_GRADIENT for V8. Make sure to import these constants to your package before useing it, i.e. use the following statement:
use SWF::Fill <list of constants>;
The default value of FLAG is SWFFILL_LINEAR_GRADIENT.
xs_setLeftFill($fill)
setLeftFill($fill)
Sets the fill on the left side of the edge. $fill is an SWF::Fill object returned from "addFill" method.
This is another way of saying:
my $fill = $shape->addSolidFill($r, $g, $b [,$a]); $shape->setLeftFill($fill);
xs_setRightFill($fill)
setRightFill($fill)
Sets the fill on the right side of the edge. $fill is an SWF::Fill object returned from "addFill" method.
This is another way of saying:
my $fill = $shape->addSolidFill($r, $g, $b [,$a]); $shape->setRightFill($fill);
drawCircle($r)
Draws a circle with radious $r, also changes current position.
Draws an arc with radious $r form start to end.
This function allows to set the shapes version information. The version is only a hint. If necessary the version is upgraded. Valid values: are 3 and 4. Value of 3 is default, but 4 if linestyle2 is used. Some shape features are available only for shape version 4 and SWF file version>=8. One example is the usage of focal gradients:
$g = new SWF::Gradient(); $g->setFocalPoint(-0.9); $g->addEntry(0.000000,0xff,0x00,0x00,0xff); $g->addEntry(1.000000,0x00,0xff,0x00,0xff); $shape->useVersion(4); $shape->addGradientFill($g,SWFFILL_FOCAL_GRADIENT);
getVersion()
Gets the current shape object version.
dumpOutline()
Returns a string describing shape's outline. After drawing in a shape expect getting a multi-line string like:
moveto 368,5 curveto 348,5 327,1 curveto 307,-3 284,-15 etc. etc.
end()
Stops drawing on this shape and make the shape complete. Further method calls won't produce any lines, circles etc. By using this demo code later no circle is painted:
$shape->drawLineTo(300,300); $shape->end(); $shape->drawCircle(200);
Draws character of $cnumber of $font. Also Unicode fonts are possible, if the font does provide that, just like next example:
$font=new SWF::Font("Thai-Bold.fdb"); $sh->drawGlyph($font, 0x0E44, 44);
drawCharacterBounds($character)
Draws an outer rectangle fitting for $character, an object of SWF::Character.
Set render hinting flags. Possible values are | |
SWF::Constants::SWF_SHAPE_USESCALINGSTROKES and | |
SWF::Constants::SWF_SHAPE_USENONSCALINGSTROKES |
This method also will set version of this SWF::Shape object to 4.
