-
\path thickness (number) commands (list)
-
Draws a path with line thickness according to the
directions given in commands. commands is a list of
lists where the car of each sublist is a drawing command and
the cdr comprises the associated arguments for each command.
There are seven commands available to use in the list
commands: moveto, rmoveto, lineto,
rlineto, curveto, rcurveto, and
closepath. Note that the commands that begin with r
are the relative variants of the other three commands.
The commands moveto, rmoveto, lineto, and
rlineto take 2 arguments; they are the X and Y coordinates
for the destination point.
The commands curveto and rcurveto create cubic
Bézier curves, and take 6 arguments; the first two are the X and Y
coordinates for the first control point, the second two are the X
and Y coordinates for the second control point, and the last two
are the X and Y coordinates for the destination point.
The closepath command takes zero arguments and closes the
current subpath in the active path.
Note that a sequence of commands must begin with a
moveto or rmoveto to work with the SVG output.
Line-cap styles and line-join styles may be customized by
overriding the line-cap-style and line-join-style
properties, respectively. Available line-cap styles are
'butt, 'round, and 'square. Available
line-join styles are 'miter, 'round, and
'bevel.
The property filled specifies whether or not the path is
filled with color.
samplePath =
#'((moveto 0 0)
(lineto -1 1)
(lineto 1 1)
(lineto 1 -1)
(curveto -5 -5 -5 5 -1 0)

\rounded-box arg (markup)
-
