<p>This is basically a free form blank canvas where any graphics can be drawn. Canvas
graphs area also used as the basic graph for graphic tables as described in <a class="xref" href="ch19.html" title="Chapter 19. Graphical tables">Chapter 19. <i>Graphical tables</i></a></p>
<p>The library provides two module files to aid with this
"j<code class="filename">pgraph_canvas.php</code>" and
"<code class="filename">jpgraph_canvtools.php</code>". The second module is strictly speaking
not necessary but provides a number of utility classes that makes it much easier to work
with canvas.</p>
<p>Canvas graphs is provided as a layer to make is easier to create arbitrary images and
still make use of some of the convenience methods available in the library (like font
and color support). </p>
<p>Canvas graphs makes it easy to use the low level graphic drawing primitives in the
library provided by the two classes </p>
<p>
</p><div class="orderedlist"><ol class="orderedlist" type="1"><li class="listitem">
<p><code class="code">class Image</code></p>
<p>This is the basic low level class that encapsulates the GD library by
providing a complete framework for using graphic primitives with a coherent
API and many convenience methods.</p>
</li><li class="listitem">
<p><code class="code">class RotImage</code></p>
<p>This is a descendant of class Image that in addition to the basic
primitives also provides support for rotation of graphs</p>
</li></ol></div><p>
</p>
<p>It is possible to work at different levels of abstraction when creating a
canvas.</p>
<p>
</p><div class="orderedlist"><ol class="orderedlist" type="1"><li class="listitem">
<p>By only using the basic Image and RotImage classes. This can be considered
one abstraction level above the most basic GD libraries</p>
</li><li class="listitem">
<p>By making use of the functionality provided by <code class="code">class
CanvasGraph</code> and the supporting classes (e.g. <code class="code">class
CanvasScale</code>). By using the canvas scale class it is possible to
defining a coordinate grid on the canvas. These coordinates can then be used
instead of absolute pixels which is necessary to us ethe basic Image and
RotImage classes.</p>
</li></ol></div><p>
</p>
<p>A concrete example of how canvas graphs can be used can be seen in <a class="xref" href="ch08s02.html#fig.listfontsex1" title="Figure 8.1. List of all latin TTF fonts. (listfontsex1.php)">Figure 8.1. List of all latin TTF fonts. <code class="uri"><a class="uri" href="example_src/listfontsex1.html" target="_top">(<code class="filename">listfontsex1.php</code>)</a></code> </a> where all the available fonts have been drawn on a
canvas.</p>

<p>Creating a canvas gives you the opportunity draw arbitrary shapes on a "white"
piece of paper. Let's first show a simple example were we just draw a text box. </p>

<p>The example in <a class="xref" href="ch17s03.html#fig.canvasex01" title="Figure 17.22. A simple canvas graph to draw a text box (canvasex01.php)">Figure 17.22. A simple canvas graph to draw a text box <code class="uri"><a class="uri" href="example_src/canvasex01.html" target="_top">(<code class="filename">canvasex01.php</code>)</a></code> </a> starts by creating a 400x200
sized image. </p>
<p>The margins are then set to to get a frame around the image. </p>
<p>For canvases the margins has no effect in the way coordinates are entered. Top
left is (0,0) and bottom right (including any potential margin and shadow) is the
maximum. In this case the coordinate range are X:0-399, and Y:0-199</p>
<p>The <code class="code">InitFrame()</code> method is then called which actually strokes the
margin and plotarea to the graph. Since everything is stroked in the order the
commands are given it is necessary to make sure that the graphical objects that
should be on top are stroked last. This is different from the other graph types
since they will hide these details and stroke the details in the graph in the
correct order. </p>
<p>We then create a Text object, setup it's properties, including the absolute screen
position where we want the text, and then stroke it. </p>
<p>The <code class="code">Text::Align()</code> method specifies the anchor point of the text as
explained in <a class="xref" href="ch08.html" title="Chapter 8. Text and font handling">Chapter 8. <i>Text and font handling</i></a></p>
<p>We also specify that the lines within the paragraph should be centered with a call
to <code class="code">Text::ParagraphAlign()</code> Since we also choose to have a box around the
text we have to make use of the method <code class="code">Text::SetBox()</code> which is used to
specify the fill color, the border color and the shadow color (if the shadow color
is set to '', no shadow will be used).</p>
<p>Now we are ready to stroke the text onto the canvas. In order to do so we must
specify the graphical context when stroking the text. The current graphic context is
always available in the "<code class="code">$img</code>" property of the CanvasGraph
class.</p>
<p>This specification of the graphical context is needed to all Stroke method that is
external to the main graph class.</p>

<p>A canvas also makes a good background for using standard graphic primitives, for
example circles and lines. The first thing to remember is that this requires working
with absolute screen coordinates and secondly that all drawing primitives are found
in the Image Class accessible as a property of the Graph class. </p>
<p>This means that to draw a line between absolute coordinates (0,0) and (100,100)
the following code must be created</p>
<p>
</p><div class="hl-main"><table class="hl-table" width="100%"><tr><td class="hl-gutter" align="right" valign="top"><pre>1
</pre></td><td class="hl-main" valign="top"><pre><span class="hl-code">$graph-&gt;img-&gt;Line(0, 0, 100, 100);</span></pre></td></tr></table></div><p>

canvas</p>

<p>The previous method using absolute coordinates works. But it gives very little
flexibility in, for example, scaling the image. Working with absolute coordinates is
therefore not very practical and gets tedious for complex figures.</p>
<p>To mitigate these issues the library offers a convenience class, <code class="code">class
CanvasScale</code>, this will allow the creation of a suitable scale that will
make it easier to both create and scale the graph.</p>
<p>In order to use a canvas scale the module
"<code class="filename">jpgraph_canvtools.php</code>" must first be included. In addition
to the canvas scale class this module also provides the companion <code class="code">Shape</code>
class. This companion shape class is used to draw shapes using the specified scale
onto the canvas. </p>
<p>Using the scale is quite simple and requires only two steps</p>
<p>
</p><div class="orderedlist"><ol class="orderedlist" type="1"><li class="listitem">
<p>An instance of the scale class is first created with the CanvasGraph
instance as the first parameter</p>
</li><li class="listitem">
<p>The wanted scale is then specified with the wanted x and y
scales</p>
</li></ol></div><p>
</p>
<p>The following code snippet shows how this is done</p>
<p>

</p>
<p>The next step needed to be able to create geometric shapes is to create an
instance of class Shape and give the canvas graph and the scale as the two
parameters as the following line shows.</p>
<p>
</p><div class="hl-main"><table class="hl-table" width="100%"><tr><td class="hl-gutter" align="right" valign="top"><pre>1

</span><span class="hl-inlinetags">?&gt;</span></pre></td></tr></table></div><p>
</p>
<p>It is now possible to create arbitrary geometric shapes by using the provided
methods in the shape class. The shape class provides the following methods</p>
<p>
</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" type="disc"><li class="listitem">
<p><code class="code">Shape::SetColor($aColor)</code></p>
