Line()

Syntax

Line(x, y, Width, Height [, Color])

Draw a line of given dimensions on the current output. The current output is set with StartDrawing().

Parameters

x, y	The origin of the line to draw.
Width, Height	The dimension of the line to draw. These values include the starting point so a Height of 1 draws a horizontal line while a Height of 0 draws nothing at all.
Color (optional)	The color to be used for the line. If this parameter is not specified, the default color set with FrontColor() will be used. This color can be in RGB or RGBA format.

Return value

None.

Remarks

To draw a line given the coordinates of the start- and end point, use the LineXY() function.

Example

  If OpenWindow(0, 0, 0, 200, 200, "2DDrawing Example", #PB_Window_SystemMenu | #PB_Window_ScreenCentered)
    If CreateImage(0, 200, 200) And StartDrawing(ImageOutput(0))
      Box(0, 0, 200, 200, RGB(255, 255, 255))
      For Width = 1 To 180 Step 5
        Line(10, 10, Width, 180, RGB(Random(255), Random(255), Random(255)))
      Next Width
      StopDrawing() 
      ImageGadget(0, 0, 0, 200, 200, ImageID(0))
    EndIf
    
    Repeat
      Event = WaitWindowEvent()
