PHP | ImagickDraw pathCurveToQuadraticBezierSmoothRelative() Function

The ImagickDraw::pathCurveToQuadraticBezierSmoothRelative() function is an inbuilt function in PHP which is used to draw a quadratic Bezier curve (using relative coordinates) from the current point to (x, y).

Syntax:

bool ImagickDraw::pathCurveToQuadraticBezierSmoothRelative( float $x, float $y )

Parameters:This function accepts two parameters as mentioned above and described below:

  • $x: It specifies the ending x-coordinate.
  • $y: It specifies ending y-coordinate.

Return Value: This function returns TRUE on success.

Exceptions: This function throws ImagickException on error.

Below given programs illustrate the ImagickDraw::pathCurveToQuadraticBezierSmoothRelative() function in PHP:

Program 1:




<?php
  
// Create a new imagick object
$imagick = new Imagick();
  
// Create a image on imagick object
$imagick->newImage(800, 250, 'black');
  
// Create a new ImagickDraw object
$draw = new ImagickDraw();
  
$draw->setFillColor('black');
  
// Set the stroke color
$draw->setStrokeColor('brown');
  
// Draw curves to Quadratic Bezier Smooth Relative (without pathClose())
$draw->pathStart();
$draw->pathCurveToQuadraticBezierSmoothRelative(950, 250);
$draw->pathFinish();
  
// Render the draw commands
$imagick->drawImage($draw);
  
// Show the output
$imagick->setImageFormat('png');
header("Content-Type: image/png");
echo $imagick->getImageBlob();
?>


Output:

Program 2:




<?php
// Create a new imagick object
$imagick = new Imagick();
  
// Create a image on imagick object
$imagick->newImage(800, 250, 'black');
  
// Create a new ImagickDraw object
$draw = new ImagickDraw();
  
$draw->setFillColor('black');
  
// Set the stroke color
$draw->setStrokeColor('pink');
  
// Draw curves to Quadratic Bezier Smooth Relative (with pathClose())
$draw->pathStart();
$draw->pathCurveToQuadraticBezierSmoothRelative(3950, 250);
$draw->pathCurveToQuadraticBezierSmoothRelative(950, 250);
$draw->pathCurveToQuadraticBezierSmoothRelative(-2000, 250);
$draw->pathClose();
$draw->pathFinish();
  
// Render the draw commands
$imagick->drawImage($draw);
  
// Show the output
$imagick->setImageFormat('png');
header("Content-Type: image/png");
echo $imagick->getImageBlob();
?>


Output:
