Enum SvgTextPathMethod

Namespace

SharpVectors.Dom.Svg

Assembly

SharpVectors.Core.dll

Indicates the method by which text should be rendered along the path.

public enum SvgTextPathMethod

Fields

Align = 0

A value of align indicates that the glyphs should be rendered using simple 2x3 transformations such that there is no stretching/warping of the glyphs. Typically, supplemental rotation, scaling and translation transformations are done for each glyph to be rendered. As a result, with align, fonts where the glyphs are designed to be connected (e.g., cursive fonts), the connections may not align properly when text is rendered along a path.

Stretch = 1

A value of stretch indicates that the glyph outlines will be converted into paths, and then all end points and control points will be adjusted to be along the perpendicular vectors from the path, thereby stretching and possibly warping the glyphs. With this approach, connected glyphs, such as in cursive scripts, will maintain their connections.
