BUILT-IN MATHEMATICA SYMBOL
FilledCurve
FilledCurve[{segment1, segment2, ...}]
represents a filled curve consisting of
followed by
etc.
FilledCurve[{component1, component2, ...}]
represents a list of separate filled component curves
,
, etc.
Details and OptionsDetails and Options
- FilledCurve can be used in Graphics (two-dimensional graphics).
- FilledCurve[segment] is equivalent to FilledCurve[{segment}].
- Possible forms of
include: -
Line[{pt1,pt2,...}] lines BezierCurve[{pt1,pt2,...},...] Bézier curve BSplineCurve[{pt1,pt2,...},...] B-spline curve - The first point on
is taken to be the last point on
. FilledCurve[{pr1[{p1, ..., pi}], pr2[{q1, ..., qj}], ...}] is equivalent to FilledCurve[{pr1[{p1, ..., pi}], pr2[{pi, q1, ..., qj}], ...}]. - Filled curves can be non-convex and intersect themselves. Self-intersecting curves are filled according to an even-odd rule that alternates between filling and not at each crossing.
- FilledCurve[{component1, component2, ...}] treats each component curve as a separate closed curve, but the filling behavior is determined as if they were part of the same curve.
- The coordinates can be specified using:
-
{x,y} ordinary coordinates Scaled[{x,y}] scaled coordinates ImageScaled[{x,y}] image scaled coordinates Offset[{dx,dy},{x,y}] absolute offset coordinates - Individual coordinates and lists of coordinates in segments can be Dynamic objects.
- FaceForm and EdgeForm can be used to specify how the interiors and boundaries should be rendered.
- Edge thickness can be specified using Thickness or AbsoluteThickness, as well as Thick, Thin, etc. in EdgeForm.
- Edge dashing can be specified using Dashing or AbsoluteDashing, as well as Dashed, Dotted, etc. in EdgeForm; for FilledCurve the dashing will be computed across all segments for each component curve.
- Edge coloring and transparency can be specified using CMYKColor, GrayLevel, Hue, Opacity, or RGBColor in EdgeForm.
- Joining of curve segments can be specified using JoinForm.
- Face coloring and transparency can be specified using CMYKColor, GrayLevel, Hue, Opacity, or RGBColor in FaceForm.
- VertexColors and VertexNormals options to Line will have no effect within a FilledCurve construct.
