💖 NAME 💖

Gnome2::Canvas::Line — it's giving lines as CanvasItems, bestie ✨

So like. This is the Perl binding for making a line on a Gnome2::Canvas. That's the whole vibe. The manual name is Gnome2:...s::Line(3) if you were wondering (yes the header is abridged like that, it's the Gnome2::Canvas::Line manpage, we move 🙈).

🌸 HIERARCHY 🌸

Here's the family tree, and yes, this line item is deep in the bloodline 👑

✨ PROPERTIES ✨

Every one of these is readable / writable (you can get and set them, slay). Here's the full roster, no skipping, no cap:

  • 'arrow-shape-a' (double : default 0 : readable / writable) — arrow shape parameter a, defaulting to zero.
  • 'arrow-shape-b' (double : default 0 : readable / writable) — arrow shape parameter b, also zero by default.
  • 'arrow-shape-c' (double : default 0 : readable / writable) — and arrow shape parameter c, zero. The trio, periodt.
  • 'cap-style' (Gtk2::Gdk::CapStyle : default "butt" : readable / writable) — how the ends of the line get capped. Defaults to "butt", which is honestly such a name 😭
  • 'fill-color' (string : default undef : readable / writable) — fill colour as a string, starts out undefined.
  • 'fill-color-gdk' (Gtk2::Gdk::Color : default undef : readable / writable) — same deal but as an actual Gtk2::Gdk::Color object. Also undef at the start.
  • 'fill-color-rgba' (Glib::UInt : default 0 : readable / writable) — fill colour as an unsigned int RGBA value, default 0.
  • 'fill-stipple' (Gtk2::Gdk::Drawable : default undef : readable / writable) — a stipple pattern for the fill, undef until you give it a drawable.
  • 'first-arrowhead' (boolean : default false : readable / writable) — do you want an arrowhead at the start? Default: no bestie.
  • 'join-style' (Gtk2::Gdk::JoinStyle : default "miter" : readable / writable) — how corners join up, defaults to "miter".
  • 'last-arrowhead' (boolean : default false : readable / writable) — arrowhead at the far end? Also defaults to false.
  • 'line-style' (Gtk2::Gdk::LineStyle : default "solid" : readable / writable) — solid, dashed, the works. Defaults to "solid".
  • 'points' (Gnome2::Canvas::Points : default undef : readable / writable) — the actual points that make up the line. undef by default, so go set it 👀
  • 'smooth' (boolean : default false : readable / writable) — smooth the line out? Default false.
  • 'spline-steps' (Glib::UInt : default 12 : readable / writable) — how many steps the spline gets. Default is 12, lowkey specific but okay.
  • 'width-pixels' (Glib::UInt : default 0 : readable / writable) — line width in pixels, default 0.
  • 'width-units' (double : default 0 : readable / writable) — line width in canvas units, default 0.
