imagepolygon() creates a polygon in the given
image
.
image
An image resource, returned by one of the image creation functions, such as imagecreatetruecolor().
points
An array containing the polygon's vertices, e.g.:
points[0] | = x0 |
points[1] | = y0 |
points[2] | = x1 |
points[3] | = y1 |
num_points
Total number of points (vertices), which must be at least 3.
If this parameter is omitted as per the second signature,points
must have an even number of elements, and num_points
is
assumed to be count($points)/2
.
color
A color identifier created with imagecolorallocate().
Returns true
on success or false
on failure.
Example #1 imagepolygon() example
<?php
// Create a blank image
$image = imagecreatetruecolor(400, 300);
// Allocate a color for the polygon
$col_poly = imagecolorallocate($image, 255, 255, 255);
// Draw the polygon
imagepolygon($image, array(
0, 0,
100, 200,
300, 200
),
3,
$col_poly);
// Output the picture to the browser
header('Content-type: image/png');
imagepng($image);
imagedestroy($image);
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
