iLine (Function) In french: iTrait Prints a line at specified coordinates. Unlike iNewLine, the end of the line is squared (instead of being rounded). The print is not started (only iEndPrinting can be used to start the print). Remark: The origin (0,0) is located in the upper-left corner of the sheet. It takes the physical margins of printer into account.
// Draws a line across the page width
// Thickness: 2.5 Pica
iLine(10, 10, 30, 25, 2.5)
iEndPrinting()
Syntax
<Result> = iLine(<X1> , <Y1> , <X2> , <Y2> [, <Thickness> [, <Color> [, <Style>]]])
<Result>: Boolean - True if the line was printed,
- False otherwise.
<X1>: Real Horizontal coordinate of the beginning of line (in millimeters). Value included between 0 and the page width (returned by iPageWidth). <Y1>: Real Vertical coordinate of the beginning of line (in millimeters). Value included between 0 and the page height (returned by iPageHeight). <X2>: Real Horizontal coordinate of the end of line (in millimeters). Value included between 0 and the page width (returned by iPageWidth). <Y2>: Real Vertical coordinate of the end of line (in millimeters). Value included between 0 and the page height (returned by iPageHeight). <Thickness>: Optional real Line thickness (in picas). Default value = 1 (one Pica = 0.353 mm).
To get a thickness of 1 pixel, <Thickness> must be equal to 0. When the thickness increases, it is proportionally distributed between the two sides of line. <Color>: Optional integer Color used for the line. If this parameter is not specified, the color used is black.
This color can correspond to: <Style>: Optional integer constant Type of line. | | iContinuous
(default value) | Solid line | | iDashed | Dashed line (-----) | | iDotAndDash | Dot-and-dash line (-.-.) | | iDotted | Dotted line (....) |
Remarks - The cursor position is not modified when the outline is drawn.
- A dotted line (iDotted) or a mixed line (iDotAndDash) combined with a thick line may produce unpleasant effects.
