Method Detail

createPolygon

public static java.awt.Polygon createPolygon(java.awt.geom.Point2D... points)

Creates a polygon from an array of points. It rounds off all the points' x & y values to the nearest integer, as the Java Polygons only work with ints.

Parameters:

points -

Returns:

the Polygon

getBestRenderingHints

public static java.awt.RenderingHints getBestRenderingHints()

Returns:

smooth as silk rendering hints, useful for nice scaling. Use this with Graphics2D, to create nice graphics.

getPathAsString

public static java.lang.String getPathAsString(java.awt.geom.PathIterator pathIterator)

Parameters:

pathIterator -

Returns:

getPointsRecentered

public static java.awt.geom.Point2D[] getPointsRecentered(java.awt.geom.Point2D[] points,
                                                          double originX,
                                                          double originY)

Recenter the points around x and y.

Parameters:

points - each point will be recalculatd relative to the new origin.

originX - the new originX

originY -

Returns:

getPointsWithConvertedUnits

public static java.awt.geom.Point2D[] getPointsWithConvertedUnits(Units sourceUnit,
                                                                  Units destUnit,
                                                                  java.awt.geom.Point2D... points)

Takes an input array of points, and returns a new array of points where all the values have been converted from the old unit to the new destination unit.

Parameters:

sourceUnit - the input points are defined in this unit

destUnit - the output Point2D[] is definited in this unit.

points - the input points.

Returns:
