Method Detail

addPoint

public void addPoint(double x,
                     double y)

Adds a point to the trail.

Specified by:

addPoint in class AbstractTrail

Parameters:

x - double

y - double

moveToPoint

public void moveToPoint(double x,
                        double y)

Starts a new trail segment by moving to a new point without drawing.

Parameters:

x - double

y - double

closeTrail

public void closeTrail()

Closes the path by connecting the first point to the last point. Points cannot be added to a closed path;

Specified by:

closeTrail in class AbstractTrail

setConnected

Parameters:

connected - boolean

isConnected

public boolean isConnected()

Gets the connected flag.

Parameters:

connected - boolean

clear

public void clear()

Clears all points from the trail.

Specified by:

clear in class AbstractTrail

draw

public void draw(DrawingPanel panel,
                 java.awt.Graphics g)

Draws the trail on the panel.

Specified by:

draw in interface Drawable

Parameters:

g -

getLoader

public static XML.ObjectLoader getLoader()

Returns the XML.ObjectLoader for this class.
