val set_line_cap : t -> line_cap -> unit

set_line_width bk w sets the line width of the backend bk to w. The line width is expressed in the natural backend coordinates (i.e. when the CTM is the identity).

val get_dash : t -> float array * float

val get_line_join : t -> line_join

val move_to : t -> float -> float -> unit

Begin a new sub-path. After this call the current point will be (x, y).

val line_to : t -> float -> float -> unit

Begin a new sub-path. After this call the current point will be (x, y).

line_to bk x y Adds a line to the path from the current point to position (x, y) in the current backend coordinates. After this call the current point will be (x, y).

If there is no current point before the call to line_to this function will behave as move_to bk x y.

val rel_move_to : t -> float -> float -> unit

val rel_line_to : t -> float -> float -> unit

val curve_to : t -> float -> float -> float -> float -> float -> float -> unit

curve_to bk x1 y1 x2 y2 x3 y3 adds an Bezier curve to the path, starting at the current point, ending at point (x3,y3), with control points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2).

val rectangle : t -> float -> float -> w:float -> h:float -> unit

rectangle bk x y w h adds to the current path of bk a rectangle whose lower left corner is at (x,y) and width and height are respectively w and h.

val arc : t -> r:float -> a1:float -> a2:float -> unit

arc bk r a1 a2 add an arc to the current path starting from the current point with a radius r, starting at angle a1 and going clockwise to angle a2.

val close_path : t -> unit

Adds a line segment to the path from the current point to the beginning of the current sub-path (the most recent point passed to Archimedes.Backend.T.move_to) and closes this sub-path.

val clear_path : t -> unit

Adds a line segment to the path from the current point to the beginning of the current sub-path (the most recent point passed to Archimedes.Backend.T.move_to) and closes this sub-path.

Clears the current path. After this call there will be no path. Nothing is guaranteed about the current point (it may not be preserved).

val path_extents : t -> Matrix.rectangle

Clears the current path. After this call there will be no path. Nothing is guaranteed about the current point (it may not be preserved).

val stroke : t -> unit

stroke bk draw the curve described by the current path according to the current line width and color.

val stroke_preserve : t -> unit

stroke bk draw the curve described by the current path according to the current line width and color.

Same as stroke but make sure the current path is unmodified.

val fill : t -> unit

Same as stroke but make sure the current path is unmodified.

fill bk draw the curve described by the current path according to the current line width and color. The current path may be modified. This is affected by the CTM.

val fill_preserve : t -> unit

fill bk draw the curve described by the current path according to the current line width and color. The current path may be modified. This is affected by the CTM.

Same as fill but make sure the current path is unmodified.

val stroke_path_preserve : t -> Path.t -> unit

stroke_path bk p stroke the abstract path p, where its coordinates are interpreted in the current transformation matrix. Of course, the current clipping, line width and color are be obeyed. This function may modify the current path in bk.

For backend developers: the internal representation of the path is available in Archimedes_internals.Path.

val fill_path_preserve : t -> Path.t -> unit

stroke_path bk p stroke the abstract path p, where its coordinates are interpreted in the current transformation matrix. Of course, the current clipping, line width and color are be obeyed. This function may modify the current path in bk.

For backend developers: the internal representation of the path is available in Archimedes_internals.Path.

fill_path_preserve is similar to stroke_path_preserve except that it fills the path.

val fill_with_color : t -> Color.t -> unit

fill_with_color t c fill the current path of t with the color c. Even if the color is transparent, it must replace all underlying elements (contrarily to Backend.T.fill which will show the underlying elements through a transparent color). If transparency is not supported by the backend, it does the same as Backend.T.fill, except that this operation does not change the current color of the backend. It may modify the current path however.

val show : t -> unit

Some backends may not show immediately the action of stroke, fill, stroke_path_preserve,... immediately (usually because it is expensive but also to avoid flicker during animations). show bk forces the backend to update.

val clip_rectangle : t -> float -> float -> w:float -> h:float -> unit

Establishes a new clip rectangle by intersecting the current clip rectangle. This may clear the current path. Calling clip_rectangle can only make the clip region smaller, never larger. For clip_rectangle to have only a local effect, put it in a save / restore group.

clip_rectangle is garantee to respect the CTM only if the components xy and yx of the matrix are both 0..

val save : t -> unit

Save the current state of the backend. Note that save/restore must not affect the current path.

val restore : t -> unit

Save the current state of the backend. Note that save/restore must not affect the current path.

Restore the saved state of the backend.

val translate : t -> float -> float -> unit

translate cr tx ty modifies the current transformation matrix by translating the user-space origin by (tx,ty).

val scale : t -> float -> float -> unit

translate cr tx ty modifies the current transformation matrix by translating the user-space origin by (tx,ty).

scale sx sy modifies the current transformation matrix by scaling the X and Y user-space axes by sx and sy respectively.

val rotate : t -> float -> unit

scale sx sy modifies the current transformation matrix by scaling the X and Y user-space axes by sx and sy respectively.

Modifies the current transformation matrix by rotating the user-space axes by angle radians.

val set_matrix : t -> Matrix.t -> unit

Modifies the current transformation matrix by rotating the user-space axes by angle radians.

Set the current transformation matrix which is the matrix transorming user to device coordinates.

val get_matrix : t -> Matrix.t

Set the current transformation matrix which is the matrix transorming user to device coordinates.

Return the current transformation matrix. Modifying this matrix does not affect the matrix held in t.

val flipy : t -> bool

Return the current transformation matrix. Modifying this matrix does not affect the matrix held in t.

true iff this kind of device has its Y axis pointing downwards. FIXME: really needed ? Beware that on some devices, the font display happens in the current coordinates.

val select_font_face : t -> slant -> weight -> string -> unit

select_font_face t slant weight family selects a family and style of font from a simplified description as a family name, slant and weight. Family names are bakend dependent. Raise an exception if the face is not supported.

val set_font_size : t -> float -> unit

select_font_face t slant weight family selects a family and style of font from a simplified description as a family name, slant and weight. Family names are bakend dependent. Raise an exception if the face is not supported.

Set the scaling of the font.

val text_extents : t -> string -> Matrix.rectangle

Set the scaling of the font.

Returns a rectangle whose width and height specify respectively the length and the height of the text. The x and y values give the lower bottom point of the rectangle as if the text was placed at the origin.

val show_text : 
  t ->
  rotate:float ->
  x:float ->
  y:float ->
  text_position ->
  string ->
  unit

Returns a rectangle whose width and height specify respectively the length and the height of the text. The x and y values give the lower bottom point of the rectangle as if the text was placed at the origin.

show_text t angle x y pos txt displays txt at the point (x,y) as indicated by pos. The point (x,y) is in the current coordinate system but the current transformation matrix will NOT be applied to the text itself. angle indicates by how many radians the text must be rotated w.r.t. the x-axis (in the current coordinate system, assuming it is orthonormal) -- not all device support rotations of angles <> 0. (in device coordinates). This is an immediate operation: no stroke nor fill are required (nor will have any effect).

val name : string

Name under which to register the backend.

val make : options:string list -> float -> float -> t

create options width height must creates a new handle of size width×height (in units proper to the module) on which the subsequent drawing functions operate. options allows to pass options to the backend (this is backend specific).

val close : options:string list -> t -> unit

Close the handle. This function will be given the options specified at backend creation so it can react appropriately if some final work need to be done for some of them.
