Interface Point

public interface Point

Point defines a public interface for obtaining the X and Y values associated with one corner of the area that one or more characters occupy. The X value defines the horizontal position of the corner, and the Y value defines the vertical position of the corner. Both positions are relative to the upper left corner of the page, which has the X-Y coordinate 0,0.

After you create a Quad object, you can call the p1, p2, p3, or p4 method to get the X-Y coordinate associated with one corner. Afterward, you can use the methods described in this chapter to get the X and Y values of the corner.

Assuming that the locations p1, p2, p3, and p4 have been obtained, the following example shows how to get the X and Y values associated with each point:

double x1, y1, x2, y2, x3, y3, x4, y4;

//Get the values for point p1.
x1 = p1.x()
y1 = p1.y()

//Get the values for point p2.
x2 = p2.x();
y2 = p2.y();

//Get the values for point p3.
x3 = p3.x();
y3 = p3.y();

//Get the values for point p4.
x4 = p4.x();
y4 = p4.y();
