<h1 style="text-align:center">Magick::Drawable</h1>
<p>Drawable provides a convenient interface for preparing vector, image, or text arguments for the Image::draw() method. Each instance of a Drawable sub-class represents a single drawable object. Drawable objects may be drawn "one-by-one" via multiple invocations of the Image <a href="Image++.html#draw">draw</a>() method, or may be drawn "all-at-once" by passing a list of Drawable objects to the Image <a href="Image++.html#draw">draw</a>() method. The one-by-one approach is convenient for simple drawings, while the list-based approach is appropriate for drawings which require more sophistication.</p>
<p>The following is an example using the Drawable subclasses with a one-by-one approach to draw the following figure:</p>
<p class="image"><font color="#000000"><font color="#000000"><img
src="Drawable_example_1.png" name="Graphic1" align="bottom" border="3"
height="200" width="300" alt="example" /></font></font>
</p>
<div class="viewport">
#include <string>
#include <iostream>
#include <Magick++.h>
using namespace std;
using namespace Magick;
int main(int /*argc*/,char **argv)
{
try {
InitializeMagick(*argv);
// Create base image (white image of 300 by 200 pixels)
Image image( Geometry(300,200), Color("white") );
// Set draw options
image.strokeColor("red"); // Outline color
image.fillColor("green"); // Fill color
image.strokeWidth(5);
// Draw a circle
image.draw( DrawableCircle(100,100, 50,100) );
// Draw a rectangle
image.draw( DrawableRectangle(200,200, 270,170) );
// Display the result
image.display( );
}
catch( exception & error_ )
{
cout << "Caught exception: " << error_.what() << endl;
return 1;
}
return 0;
}
</div>
<p>Since Drawable is an object it may be saved in an array or a list for later (perhaps repeated) use. The following example shows how to draw the same figure using the list-based approach:</p>
<div class="viewport">
#include <string>
#include <iostream>
#include <list>
#include <Magick++.h>
using namespace std;
using namespace Magick;
int main(int /*argc*/,char **/*argv*/)
{
try {
InitializeMagick(*argv);
// Create base image (white image of 300 by 200 pixels)
Image image( Geometry(300,200), Color("white") );
// Construct drawing list
std::list<Magick::Drawable> drawList;
// Add some drawing options to drawing list
drawList.push_back(DrawableStrokeColor("red")); // Outline color
drawList.push_back(DrawableStrokeWidth(5)); // Stroke width
drawList.push_back(DrawableFillColor("green")); // Fill color
// Add a Circle to drawing list
drawList.push_back(DrawableCircle(100,100, 50,100));
// Add a Rectangle to drawing list
drawList.push_back(DrawableRectangle(200,100, 270,170));
// Draw everything using completed drawing list
image.draw(drawList);
// Display the result
image.display( );
}
catch( exception & error_ )
{
cout << "Caught exception: " << error_.what() << endl;
return 1;
}
return 0;
}
</div>
<p>Drawable depends on the simple Coordinate structure which represents a pair of x,y coodinates. The methods provided by the Coordinate structure are shown in the following table:</p>

<h2 style="text-align:center">Vector Path Classes</h2>
<p>The vector paths supported by Magick++ are based on those supported by the <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/paths.html">SVG XML specification</a>. Vector paths are not directly drawable, they must first be supplied as a constructor argument to the <a href="Drawable.html#DrawablePath">DrawablePath</a> class in order to create a drawable object. The <a href="Drawable.html#DrawablePath">DrawablePath</a> class effectively creates a drawable compound component which may be replayed as desired. If the drawable compound component consists only of vector path objects using relative coordinates then the object may be positioned on the image by preceding it with a <i>DrawablePath</i> which sets the current drawing coordinate. Alternatively coordinate transforms may be used to <a href="Drawable.html#DrawableTranslation">translate the origin</a> in order to position the object, <a href="Drawable.html#DrawableRotation">rotate</a> it, <a href="Drawable.html#DrawableSkewX">skew</a> it, or <a href="Drawable.html#DrawableScaling">scale</a> it.</p>
<h3>The "moveto" commands</h3>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in">The "moveto" commands establish a new current point. The effect is as if the "pen" were lifted and moved to a new location. A path data segment must begin with either one of the "moveto" commands or one of the "arc" commands. Subsequent "moveto" commands (i.e., when the "moveto" is not the first command) represent the start of a new subpath:</p>
