Example 1:
HTML
<!DOCTYPE html> < html lang = "en" > < head > < meta charset = "UTF-8" > < meta name = "viewport" path1tent = "width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0" > < script src = </ script > < style > h1 { color: green; } svg { background-color: #f2f2f2; } .path2 { stroke: #000; } </ style > </ head > < body > < div > < svg width = "100" height = "100" > < path class = "path2" > </ svg > </ div > < script > // Creating a path var path = d3.path(); path.moveTo(10, 10); path.bezierCurveTo(95, 10, 50, 90, 10, 10) // Printing the string of the path console.log(path.toString()) path.bezierCurveTo(90, 10, 15, 110, 10, 10) // Closing the path path.closePath(); d3.select(".path2").attr("d", path); </ script > </ body > </ html > |
Output: Path string for this shape is given in console.
Example 2:
HTML
<!DOCTYPE html> < html lang = "en" > < head > < meta charset = "UTF-8" > < meta name = "viewport" path1tent = "width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" > < script src = </ script > < style > h1 { color: green; } svg { background-color: #f2f2f2; } .path2 { stroke: #000; } </ style > </ head > < body > < div > < svg width = "100" height = "100" > < path class = "path2" > </ svg > </ div > < script > // Creating a path var path = d3.path(); path.moveTo(10, 10); // Making line to x:90 and y:10 path.lineTo(90, 10); // Closing the path path.closePath(); path.moveTo(90, 10); path.lineTo(90, 90); // Closing the path path.closePath(); path.moveTo(90, 90); path.lineTo(10, 90); // Closing the path path.closePath(); path.moveTo(10, 90); path.lineTo(10, 10); // Closing the path path.closePath(); // Printing the string of the path console.log(path.toString()) d3.select(".path2").attr("d", path); </ script > </ body > </ html > |
Output: The path string for the square shape is given in the console.
