BUILT-IN MATHEMATICA SYMBOL
JoinedCurve
JoinedCurve[{segment1, segment2, ...}]
represents a curve consisting of 
followed by 
etc.
JoinedCurve[{component1, component2, ...}]
represents a list of separate component curves 
, 
, etc.
Details and Options
- JoinedCurve can be used in Graphics (two-dimensional graphics).
- JoinedCurve[segment] is equivalent to JoinedCurve[{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 
. JoinedCurve[{pr1[{p1, ..., pi}], pr2[{q1, ..., qj}], ...}] is equivalent to JoinedCurve[{pr1[{p1, ..., pi}], pr2[{pi, q1, ..., qj}], ...}]. - The setting JoinedCurve[{component1, component2, ...}, CurveClosed->{close1, close2, ...}] specifies whether individual component curves should be closed.
- JoinedCurve[{component1, ...}, CurveClosed->close] indicates that all component curves should be closed.
- 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.
- Curve thickness can be specified using Thickness or AbsoluteThickness, as well as Thick, Thin, etc.
- Curve dashing can be specified using Dashing or AbsoluteDashing, as well as Dashed, Dotted, etc.
- Curve coloring and transparency can be specified using CMYKColor, GrayLevel, Hue, Opacity, or RGBColor.
- Joining of curve segments can be specified using JoinForm.
- Curve caps can be specified using CapForm.
- VertexColors and VertexNormals options to Line will have no effect within a JoinedCurve construct.
