Remarks

Use a PathFigure object to store PolyBezierSegment objects and other segments.

A cubic Bezier curve is defined by four points: a start point, an end point, and two control points. A PolyBezierSegment specifies one or more cubic Bezier curves by setting the Points property to a collection of points. For every three points in the collection, the first and second points specify the two control points of the curve, and the third point specifies the end point. Note that no start point for the curve is specified because the start point is the same as the end point of the last segment. If in fact you are specifying exactly three points (one Bezier curve) you could instead use BezierSegment, specifying the three point values as Point1, Point2, and Point3.

The two control points of a cubic Bezier curve behave like magnets, attracting portions of what would otherwise be a straight line toward themselves and producing a curve. The first control point affects the beginning portion of the curve; the second control point affects the ending portion of the curve. Note that the curve does not necessarily pass through either of the control points; each control point moves its portion of the line toward itself, but not through itself.

PolyBezierSegment can have an essentially unlimited number of control points, with the values of these points and the end point given as the Points property value.

Examples

The following example shows how to use a PolyBezierSegment to create a series of curves.

Run this sample

<Canvas Width="500" Height="100">
  <Path Stroke="Black" StrokeThickness="1">
    <Path.Data>
      <PathGeometry>
        <PathGeometry.Figures>
          <PathFigureCollection>

            <!-- The StartPoint specifies the starting point of the first curve. -->
            <PathFigure StartPoint="10,100">
              <PathFigure.Segments>
                <PathSegmentCollection>

                  <!-- The PolyBezierSegment specifies two cubic Bezier curves.
                   The first curve is from 10,100 (start point specified above)
                   to 300,100 with a control point of 0,0 and another control
                   point of 200,0. The second curve is from 300,100 
                   (end of the last curve) to 600,100 with a control point of 300,0
                   and another control point of 400,0. -->
                  <PolyBezierSegment Points="0,0 200,0 300,100 300,0 400,0 600,100" />
                </PathSegmentCollection>
