# Qt Quick Examples - Canvas

This is a collection of QML Canvas examples.

Canvas is a collection of small QML examples relating to the Canvas type. Each example is a small QML file emphasizing a particular type or feature.

#### Running the Example

To run the example from Qt Creator, open the Welcome mode and select the example from Examples. For more information, visit Building and Running an Example.

#### Red Heart

Red heart uses the bezier curve API to stroke and fill a red heart.

     ctx.beginPath()
     ctx.moveTo(75,40)
     ctx.bezierCurveTo(75,37,70,25,50,25)
     ctx.bezierCurveTo(20,25,20,62.5,20,62.5)
     ctx.bezierCurveTo(20,80,40,102,75,120)
     ctx.bezierCurveTo(110,102,130,80,130,62.5)
     ctx.bezierCurveTo(130,62.5,130,25,100,25)
     ctx.bezierCurveTo(85,25,75,37,75,40)
     ctx.closePath()

#### Talk Bubble

Talk bubble uses the quadraticCurveTo() API to stroke and fill a customized talk bubble:

     ctx.beginPath()
     ctx.moveTo(75, 25)
     ctx.quadraticCurveTo(25, 25, 25, 62.5)
     ctx.quadraticCurveTo(25, 100, 50, 100)
     ctx.quadraticCurveTo(50, 120, 30, 125)
     ctx.quadraticCurveTo(60, 120, 65, 100)
     ctx.quadraticCurveTo(125, 100, 125, 62.5)
     ctx.quadraticCurveTo(125, 25, 75, 25)
     ctx.closePath()

This example also demonstrates the fillText() API:

     ctx.fillStyle = "white"
     ctx.font = "bold 17px sans-serif"
     ctx.fillText("Qt Quick", 40, 70)

#### Squircle

Squircle uses a collection of simple moveTo() and lineTo() path APIs to draw a smooth squircle.

#### Rounded Rectangle

Rounded rectangle uses a collection of lineTo() and arcTo() path APIs to draw a rounded rectangle.

#### Smile Face

Smile face uses several paths to draw and fill a smiling face.

#### Clip

Clip uses the clip API to clip a given image.

     ctx.clip()
     ctx.drawImage(canvas.imagefile, 0, 0)

#### Tiger

Tiger uses the SVG path API to draw a tiger with a collection of SVG path strings.

     for (let i = 0; i < Tiger.tiger.length; i++) {
         if (Tiger.tiger[i].width !== undefined)
             ctx.lineWidth = Tiger.tiger[i].width

         if (Tiger.tiger[i].path !== undefined)
             ctx.path = Tiger.tiger[i].path

         if (Tiger.tiger[i].fill !== undefined) {
             ctx.fillStyle = Tiger.tiger[i].fill
             ctx.fill()
         }

         if (Tiger.tiger[i].stroke !== undefined) {
             ctx.strokeStyle = Tiger.tiger[i].stroke
             ctx.stroke()
         }
     }
