The QCanvasSpline class provides multi-bezier splines on a <a href="qcanvas.html">QCanvas</a>.

<p> 


<p> A QCanvasSpline is a sequence of 4-point bezier curves joined
together to make a curved shape.
<p> You set the control points of the spline with <a href="#setControlPoints">setControlPoints</a>().
<p> If the bezier is <a href="#closed">closed</a>(), then the first control point will be
re-used as the last control point. Therefore, a closed bezier must
have a multiple of 3 control points and an open bezier must have
one extra point.
<p> The beziers are not necessarily joined "smoothly". To ensure this,
set control points appropriately (general reference texts about
beziers will explain this in detail).
<p> Like any other canvas item splines can be moved with
<a href="qcanvasitem.html#move">QCanvasItem::move</a>() and <a href="qcanvasitem.html#moveBy">QCanvasItem::moveBy</a>(), or by setting
coordinates with <a href="qcanvasitem.html#setX">QCanvasItem::setX</a>(), <a href="qcanvasitem.html#setY">QCanvasItem::setY</a>() and
<a href="qcanvasitem.html#setZ">QCanvasItem::setZ</a>().
<p> <p>See also <a href="graphics.html">Graphics Classes</a> and <a href="images.html">Image Processing Classes</a>.

<hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2>
<h3 class=fn><a name="QCanvasSpline"></a>QCanvasSpline::QCanvasSpline ( <a href="qcanvas.html">QCanvas</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;canvas )
</h3>
Create a spline with no control points on the canvas <em>canvas</em>.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#setControlPoints">setControlPoints</a>().

<h3 class=fn><a name="~QCanvasSpline"></a>QCanvasSpline::~QCanvasSpline ()
</h3>
Destroy the spline.

<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="closed"></a>QCanvasSpline::closed () const
</h3>
Returns TRUE if the control points are a closed set; otherwise
returns FALSE.

<h3 class=fn><a href="qpointarray.html">QPointArray</a> <a name="controlPoints"></a>QCanvasSpline::controlPoints () const
</h3>
Returns the current set of control points.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#setControlPoints">setControlPoints</a>() and <a href="#closed">closed</a>().

<h3 class=fn>int <a name="rtti"></a>QCanvasSpline::rtti () const<tt> [virtual]</tt>
</h3>
Returns 8 (QCanvasItem::Rtti_Spline).
<p> <p>See also <a href="qcanvasitem.html#rtti">QCanvasItem::rtti</a>().

<p>Reimplemented from <a href="qcanvaspolygon.html#rtti">QCanvasPolygon</a>.
<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setControlPoints"></a>QCanvasSpline::setControlPoints ( <a href="qpointarray.html">QPointArray</a>&nbsp;ctrl, bool&nbsp;close = TRUE )
</h3>
Set the spline control points to <em>ctrl</em>.
<p> If <em>close</em> is TRUE, then the first point in <em>ctrl</em> will be
re-used as the last point, and the number of control points must
be a multiple of 3. If <em>close</em> is FALSE, one additional control
point is required, and the number of control points must be one of
(4, 7, 10, 13, ...).
<p> If the number of control points doesn't meet the above conditions,
the number of points will be truncated to the largest number of
points that do meet the requirement.
