Class StrokeProperty

java.lang.Object
  net.nexttext.property.Property
      net.nexttext.property.StrokeProperty

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.Cloneable

public class StrokeProperty
extends Property

A stroke property for a TextObject (using the BasicStroke implementation). Allows to draw outlines of glyphs in NextText.

The stroke is centered on the control points of a glyph, which means that for larger strokes, the control points will be inside of the stroke. Thus, large strokes will exceed the bounding polygon.

Constructor Summary

StrokeProperty()
Creates a new StrokeProperty using a stroke of width 1.

StrokeProperty(java.awt.BasicStroke stroke)
Creates a new StrokeProperty from the java.awt.BasicStroke object.

Method Summary

java.awt.BasicStroke	get() Do not modify the returned value, use set() to make changes instead.
java.awt.BasicStroke	getOriginal() Returns the original stroke.
boolean	isInherited() Returns the inherited status of this StrokeProperty.
void	reset() Reset interface from superclass.
void	set(java.awt.BasicStroke newStroke) Sets the Stroke property to the specified value.
void	setInherited(boolean inherited) Setting inherited to true on a StrokeProperty will cause it to bypass it's current stroke value in favor of the stroke value of its parent.
void	setOriginal(java.awt.BasicStroke newStroke) Modifies the original stroke value.

The stroke property is inherited by default.

StrokeProperty

public StrokeProperty(java.awt.BasicStroke stroke)

Creates a new StrokeProperty from the java.awt.BasicStroke object.

The stroke property is not inherited by default.

Method Detail

get

public java.awt.BasicStroke get()

Do not modify the returned value, use set() to make changes instead.

set

public void set(java.awt.BasicStroke newStroke)

Sets the Stroke property to the specified value. Also sets the Inherited property to false.

getOriginal

public java.awt.BasicStroke getOriginal()

Returns the original stroke.

setOriginal

public void setOriginal(java.awt.BasicStroke newStroke)

Modifies the original stroke value.

setInherited

public void setInherited(boolean inherited)

Setting inherited to true on a StrokeProperty will cause it to bypass it's current stroke value in favor of the stroke value of its parent. By default a StrokeProperty is not inherited.

isInherited

public boolean isInherited()

Returns the inherited status of this StrokeProperty.

reset

public void reset()

Reset interface from superclass. Resets the stroke to its original value.
