NAME
gtk4-path-tool - GskPath Utility
SYNOPSIS
gtk4-path-tool <COMMAND> [OPTIONS...] <PATH>
gtk4-path-tool decompose [OPTIONS...] <PATH>
gtk4-path-tool show [OPTIONS...] <PATH>
gtk4-path-tool render [OPTIONS...] <PATH>
gtk4-path-tool reverse [OPTIONS...] <PATH>
gtk4-path-tool info [OPTIONS...] <PATH>
DESCRIPTION
gtk4-path-tool can perform various tasks on paths. Paths are specified in SVG syntax, as
strings like "M 100 100 C 100 200 200 200 200 100 Z".
To read a path from a file, use a filename that starts with a '.' or a '/'. To read a
path from stdin, use '-'.
COMMANDS
Decomposing
The decompose command approximates the path by one with simpler elements. When used
without options, the curves of the path are approximated by line segments.
--allow-quad
Allow quadratic Bézier curves to be used in the generated path.
--allow-cubic
Allow cubic Bézier curves to be used in the generated path.
--allow-conic
Allow conic Bézier curves to be used in the generated path.
Showing
The show command displays the given path in a window. The interior of the path is filled.
--fill
Fill the path (this is the default).
--stroke
Stroke the path instead of filling it.
--points
Show points on the path.
--controls
Show control points.
--fill-rule=VALUE
The fill rule that is used to determine what areas are inside the path. The possible
values are winding or even-odd. The default is winding.
--fg-color=COLOR
The color that is used to fill the interior of the path or stroke the path. If not
specified, black is used.
--bg-color=COLOR
The color that is used to render the background behind the path. If not specified,
white is used.
--point-color=COLOR
The color that is used to render the points. If not specified, red is used.
--line-width=VALUE
The line width to use for the stroke. VALUE must be a positive number. The default
line width is 1.
--line-cap=VALUE
The cap style to use at line ends. The possible values are butt, round or square. See
the SVG specification for details on these styles. The default cap style is butt.
--line-join=VALUE
The join style to use at line joins. The possible values are miter, miter-clip, round,
bevel or arcs. See the SVG specification for details on these styles. The default join
style is miter.
--miter-limit=VALUE
The limit at which to clip miters at line joins. The default value is 4.
--dashes=VALUE
The dash pattern to use for this stroke. A dash pattern is specified by a
comma-separated list of alternating non-negative numbers. Each number provides the
length of alternate "on" and "off" portions of the stroke. If the dash pattern is
empty, dashing is disabled, which is the default. See the SVG specification for
details on dashing.
--dash-offset=VALUE
The offset into the dash pattern where dashing should begin. The default value is 0.
Rendering
The render command renders the given path as a PNG image. The interior of the path is
filled.
--fill
Fill the path (this is the default).
--stroke
Stroke the path instead of filling it.
--points
Show points on the path.
--controls
Show control points.
--fill-rule=VALUE
The fill rule that is used to determine what areas are inside the path. The possible
values are winding or even-odd. The default is winding.
--fg-color=COLOR
The color that is used to fill the interior of the path or stroke the path. If not
specified, black is used.
--bg-color=COLOR
The color that is used to render the background behind the path. If not specified,
white is used.
--point-color=COLOR
The color that is used to render the points. If not specified, red is used.
--output-file=FILE
The file to save the PNG image to. If not specified, "path.png" is used.
--line-width=VALUE
The line width to use for the stroke. VALUE must be a positive number. The default
line width is 1.
--line-cap=VALUE
The cap style to use at line ends. The possible values are butt, round or square. See
the SVG specification for details on these styles. The default cap style is butt.
--line-join=VALUE
The join style to use at line joins. The possible values are miter, miter-clip, round,
bevel or arcs. See the SVG specification for details on these styles. The default join
style is miter.
--miter-limit=VALUE
The limit at which to clip miters at line joins. The default value is 4.
--dashes=VALUE
The dash pattern to use for this stroke. A dash pattern is specified by a
comma-separated list of alternating non-negative numbers. Each number provides the
length of alternate "on" and "off" portions of the stroke. If the dash pattern is
empty, dashing is disabled, which is the default. See the SVG specification for
details on dashing.
--dash-offset=VALUE
The offset into the dash pattern where dashing should begin. The default value is 0.
Reversing
The reverse command changes the direction of the path. The resulting paths starts where
the original path ends.
Info
The info command shows various information about the given path, such as its bounding box.
