NAME

   Imager::Fill - general fill types
 
 

SYNOPSIS

   my $fill1 = Imager::Fill->new(solid=>$color, combine=>$combine);
   my $fill2 = Imager::Fill->new(hatch=>'vline2', fg=>$color1, bg=>$color2,
                                 dx=>$dx, dy=>$dy);
   my $fill3 = Imager::Fill->new(fountain=>$type, ...);
   my $fill4 = Imager::Fill->new(image=>$img, ...);
 
 

DESCRIPTION

Creates fill objects for use by most filled area drawing functions.

All fills are created with the new method.

new

   my $fill = Imager::Fill->new(...);
 
 

The parameters depend on the type of fill being created. See below for details.

The currently available fills are:

*

solid

*

hatch

*

fountain (similar to gradients in paint software)

Common options

combine

The way in which the fill data is combined with the underlying image. See ``Combine Types'' in Imager::Draw.

In general colors can be specified as Imager::Color or Imager::Color::Float objects. The fill object will typically store both types and convert from one to the other. If a fill takes 2 color objects they should have the same type.

Solid fills

   my $fill = Imager::Fill->new(solid=>$color, $combine =>$combine)
 
 

Creates a solid fill, the only required parameter is "solid" which should be the color to fill with.

Hatched fills

   my $fill = Imager::Fill->new(hatch=>$type, fg=>$fgcolor, bg=>$bgcolor,
                                dx=>$dx, $dy=>$dy);
 
 

Creates a hatched fill. You can specify the following keywords:

hatch

The type of hatch to perform, this can either be the numeric index of the hatch (not recommended), the symbolic name of the hatch, or an array of 8 integers which specify the pattern of the hatch.

Hatches are represented as cells 8x8 arrays of bits, which limits their complexity.

Current hatch names are:

check1x1, check2x2, check4x4

checkerboards at varios sizes

vline1, vline2, vline4

1, 2, or 4 vertical lines per cell

hline1, hline2, hline4

1, 2, or 4 horizontal lines per cell

slash1, slash2

1 or 2 / lines per cell.

slosh1, slosh2

1 or 2 \ lines per cell

grid1, grid2, grid4

1, 2, or 4 vertical and horizontal lines per cell

dots1, dots4, dots16

1, 4 or 16 dots per cell

stipple, stipple2

see the samples

weave

I hope this one is obvious.

cross1, cross2

2 densities of crosshatch

vlozenge, hlozenge

something like lozenge tiles

scalesdown, scalesup, scalesleft, scalesright

Vaguely like fish scales in each direction.

tile_L

L-shaped tiles

fg

bg

The fg color is rendered where bits are set in the hatch, and the bg where they are clear. If you use a transparent fg or bg, and set combine, you can overlay the hatch onto an existing image.

fg defaults to black, bg to white.

dx

dy

An offset into the hatch cell. Both default to zero.

You can call Imager::Fill->hatches for a list of hatch names.

Fountain fills

   my $fill = Imager::Fill->new(fountain=>$ftype, 
        xa=>$xa, ya=>$ya, xb=>$xb, yb=>$yb, 
        segments=>$segments, repeat=>$repeat, combine=>$combine, 
        super_sample=>$super_sample, ssample_param=>$ssample_param);
 
 

This fills the given region with a fountain fill. This is exactly the same fill as the "fountain" filter, but is restricted to the shape you are drawing, and the fountain parameter supplies the fill type, and is required.

Image Fills

   my $fill = Imager::Fill->new(image=>$src, xoff=>$xoff, yoff=>$yoff,
                                matrix=>$matrix, $combine);
 
 

Fills the given image with a tiled version of the given image. The first non-zero value of xoff or yoff will provide an offset along the given axis between rows or columns of tiles respectively.

The matrix parameter performs a co-ordinate transformation from the co-ordinates in the target image to the fill image co-ordinates. Linear interpolation is used to determine the fill pixel. You can use the Imager::Matrix2d class to create transformation matrices.

The matrix parameter will significantly slow down the fill.

OTHER METHODS

Imager::Fill->hatches

A list of all defined hatch names.

Imager::Fill->combines

A list of all combine types.

FUTURE PLANS

I'm planning on adding the following types of fills:

checkerboard

combines 2 other fills in a checkerboard

combine

combines 2 other fills using the levels of an image

regmach

uses the transform2() register machine to create fills
