END_PATH

Ends the definition of a the current path.

Syntax

END_PATH [ close-figure ] .

Parameters

• close-figure (modifier, optional) - When specified then the last point of the path is connected to the first point of the path with a straight line.

Details

This ends the definition of a path, after which it can be used to draw a line, a shape (DRAW_PATH) or a clipping region (CLIP_PATH). The definition of a path must first be started with BEGIN_PATH.

The close-figure modifier can be used to close the path when only drawing only the outline with DRAW_PATH. The path is automatically closed when it also has to be filled.

Each path can only be used once. To draw or clip on the same path again it is necessary to define the path once more.
