## Detailed Description

Subpath consisting of a sequence of CurveSegment's.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Curve::Curve | ( |  | ) |

Create an empty, open subpath.

## Member Function Documentation

SubPath::Type Curve::type | ( |  | ) | const`[virtual]`

Return type of this subpath.

Implements ipe::SubPath.

virtual bool ipe::Curve::closed | ( |  | ) | const`[inline, virtual]`

Is this subpath closed?

Default implementation returns `true`.

Reimplemented from ipe::SubPath.

const Curve * Curve::asCurve | ( |  | ) | const`[virtual]`

Return this object as an Curve, or else 0.

Reimplemented from ipe::SubPath.

void Curve::save | ( | Stream & | stream | ) | const`[virtual]`

Save subpath to XML stream.

Implements ipe::SubPath.

void Curve::draw | ( | Painter & | painter | ) | const`[virtual]`

Draw subpath (does not call drawPath()).

Implements ipe::SubPath.

void Curve::addToBBox | ( | Rect & | box,
|  | const Matrix & | m,
|  | bool | cp
| ) |  | const`[virtual]`

Add subpath to box.

Implements ipe::SubPath.

double Curve::distance | ( | const Vector & | v,
|  | const Matrix & | m,
|  | double | bound
| ) |  | const`[virtual]`

Return distance from v to subpath transformed by m.

Implements ipe::SubPath.

void Curve::snapVtx | ( | const Vector & | mouse,
|  | const Matrix & | m,
|  | Vector & | pos,
|  | double & | bound
| ) |  | const`[virtual]`

Snap to vertex.

Implements ipe::SubPath.

void Curve::snapBnd | ( | const Vector & | mouse,
|  | const Matrix & | m,
|  | Vector & | pos,
|  | double & | bound
| ) |  | const`[virtual]`

Snap to boundary of subpath.

Implements ipe::SubPath.

int ipe::Curve::countSegments | ( |  | ) | const`[inline]`

Return number of segments. This does not include the closing segment for a closed path.

CurveSegment Curve::segment | ( | int | i | ) | const

Return segment.

If i is negative, elements from the end are returned. The closing segment of a closed path is not accessible this way (use closingSegment() instead)!

CurveSegment Curve::closingSegment | ( | Vector | u[2] | ) | const

Returns the closing segment of a closed path.

Since the closing segment isn't actually stored inside this object, you have to provide a length-2 vector for the control points.

This method panics if the Curve is not closed.

void Curve::appendSegment | ( | const Vector & | v0,
|  | const Vector & | v1
| ) |  |

Append a straight segment to the subpath.

void Curve::appendArc | ( | const Matrix & | m,
|  | const Vector & | v0,
|  | const Vector & | v1
| ) |  |

Append elliptic arc to the subpath.

void Curve::appendQuad | ( | const Vector & | v0,
|  | const Vector & | v1,
|  | const Vector & | v2
| ) |  |

Append quadratic Bezier spline.

void Curve::appendBezier | ( | const Vector & | v0,
|  | const Vector & | v1,
|  | const Vector & | v2,
|  | const Vector & | v3
| ) |  |

Append cubic Bezier spline.

void Curve::appendSpline | ( | const std::vector< Vector > & | v | ) |

Append B-spline curve.

void Curve::setClosed | ( | bool | closed | ) |

Set whether subpath is closed or not.
