Measure values representing the horizontal/vertical position, in inches, of the ending point of the line. When using rlineto,

these values are relative to the current point of origin. When using lineto, they are absolute values.

Code Sample Example

This example draws an empty triangle with a blue outline.

Example

setstrokecolor([100,100,0,0]) %Set pen colour to blue

moveto(1,1) %Set starting point

lineto(1.5,2) %Draw first line

lineto(0.5,2) %Draw second line

closepath() %Close shape

stroke() %Draw shape

MoveTo/RMoveTo (procedure)

Moves the current point to the specified coordinates.

Syntax

moveto( x, y )

Arguments

x, y

Measure values representing the new horizontal/vertical position, in inches, of the current point. In rmoveto, these values

are relative to the current point of origin. In moveto, they are absolute values.

Code Sample Example

This example displays a triangle within a rectangle.

Example

rectstroke(.5,.5,2,2) %Draw rectangle

moveto(1,1) %Reset current point

lineto(1.5,2) %Draw first line

lineto(0.5,2) %Draw second line

closepath() %Close shape

stroke() %Draw shape
