phoenix_title wx.GraphicsPath

A wx.GraphicsPath is a native representation of a geometric path.

The contents are specific and private to the respective renderer. Instances are reference counted and can therefore be assigned as usual. The only way to get a valid instance is by using wx.GraphicsContext.CreatePath or wx.GraphicsRenderer.CreatePath .

class wx.GraphicsPath(GraphicsObject)

A GraphicsPath is a native representation of a geometric path.


Methods

AddArc(self, *args, **kw)

Adds an arc of a circle.

The circle is defined by the coordinates of its centre (x, y) or c and its radius r. The arc goes from the starting angle startAngle to endAngle either clockwise or counter-clockwise depending on the value of clockwise argument.

The angles are measured in radians but, contrary to the usual mathematical convention, are always clockwise from the horizontal axis.

If for clockwise arc endAngle is less than startAngle it will be progressively increased by 2pi until it is greater than startAngle. If for counter-clockwise arc endAngle is greater than startAngle it will be progressively decreased by 2pi until it is less than startAngle.

If there is a current point set, an initial line segment will be added to the path to connect the current point to the beginning of the arc.

overload Overloaded Implementations:



AddArc (self, x, y, r, startAngle, endAngle, clockwise)

Parameters:
  • x (wx.Double) –

  • y (wx.Double) –

  • r (wx.Double) –

  • startAngle (wx.Double) –

  • endAngle (wx.Double) –

  • clockwise (bool) –



AddArc (self, c, r, startAngle, endAngle, clockwise)

Parameters:
  • c (wx.Point2D) –

  • r (wx.Double) –

  • startAngle (wx.Double) –

  • endAngle (wx.Double) –

  • clockwise (bool) –





AddArcToPoint(self, x1, y1, x2, y2, r)

Adds an arc (of a circle with radius r) that is tangent to the line connecting current point and (x1, y1) and to the line connecting (x1, y1) and (x2, y2).

If the current point and the starting point of the arc are different, a straight line connecting these points is also appended. If there is no current point before the call to AddArcToPoint this function will behave as if preceded by a call to MoveToPoint(0, 0). After this call the current point will be at the ending point of the arc.
