💖 Bio::G...ph::dot(3pm) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the man page for Bio::G...ph::dot(3pm) (you'll also see it called Bio::Graphics::Glyph::dot around town, and yes that's the same icon 💅). It's part of the User Contributed Perl Documentation, it's a glyph, it draws dots, and we're gonna get into it. no gatekeeping here 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

Bio::Graphics::Glyph::dot — the "dot" glyph. that's it, that's the whole name, she's simple and she's iconic 👑

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

See L<Bio::Graphics::Panel> and L<Bio::Graphics::Glyph>.

like, go read the parents first, bestie, that's where all the lore lives 🌸

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so what does this glyph do? it draws an ellipse. the width of that ellipse is the width of the scaled feature you passed in, and the height is a height you can configure if you want to (peep Bio::Graphics::Glyph for how that works). it's giving circle. it's giving little blob. it's giving exactly what you asked for. 🦋

🌈 OPTIONS 🌈

these next ones are standard across all the glyphs, not just this one — go check Bio::Graphics::Glyph if you want the full deep dive, no cap. 📚

• -fgcolor — the foreground color. default is black 🖤
• -outlinecolor — a synonym for -fgcolor. same vibe, different name.
• -bgcolor — the background color. default is turquoise 💙
• -fillcolor — a synonym for -bgcolor. again: same vibe, different name.
• -linewidth — how thick the line is. default is 1 ✏️
• -height — height of the glyph. default is 10 📏
• -font — the glyph's font. default is gdSmallFont 🔤
• -connector — the connector type. default is 0 (false) 🔗
• -connector_color — the connector color. default is black 🖤
• -label — whether to draw a label. default is 0 (false) 🏷️
• -description — whether to draw a description. default is 0 (false) 📝
• -hilite — the highlight color. default is undef (no color, so nothing gets highlighted) ✨

and on top of all those common ones, this glyph also recognizes this one specific option of its very own, main character behavior fr fr:

• -point — whether to draw an ellipse with the scaled width of the feature, or with radius point. default is feature width 👈
