<h4 class="subsection">2.3.4 Lines and Shapes</h4>

<p>Sprites are fun, but sometimes simple, untextured lines and polygons
are desired.  That&rsquo;s where the <code>(chickadee render shapes)</code> module
comes in!
</p>
<dl>
<dt><a name="index-draw_002dline"></a>Procedure: <strong>draw-line</strong> <em>start end        [#:thickness 0.5] [#:feather 1.0] [#:cap round] [#:color]        [#:shader]</em></dt>
<dd>
<p>Draw a line segment from <var>start</var> to <var>end</var>. The line will be
<var>thickness</var> pixels thick with an antialiased border <var>feather</var>
pixels wide.  The line will be colored <var>color</var>. <var>cap</var>
specifies the type of end cap that should be used to terminate the
lines, either <code>none</code>, <code>butt</code>, <code>square</code>, <code>round</code>,
<code>triangle-in</code>, or <code>triangle-out</code>.  Advanced users may use
the <var>shader</var> argument to override the built-in line segment
shader.

<dt><a name="index-draw_002dbezier_002dcurve"></a>Procedure: <strong>draw-bezier-curve</strong> <em>bezier [#:segments 32]                                      [#:control-points?] [#:tangents?]                                      [#:control-point-size 8]                                      [#:control-point-color yellow]                                      [#:tangent-color yellow]                                      [#:thickness 0.5] [#:feather 1.0]                                      [#:matrix]</em></dt>
<dd>
<p>Draw the curve defined by <var>bezier</var> using a resolution of N
<var>segments</var>.  When <var>control-points?</var> is <code>#t</code>, the control
points are rendered as squares of size <var>control-point-size</var> pixels
and a color of <var>control-point-color</var>.  When <var>tangents?</var> is
<code>#t</code>, the tangent lines from terminal point to control point are
rendered using the color <var>tangent-color</var>.
</p>
<p>All line segments rendered use <code>draw-line</code>, and thus the
arguments <var>thickness</var> and <var>feather</var> have the same effect as in
that procedure.
</p>
<p>A custom <var>matrix</var> may be passed for applications that require more
control over the final output.

<dt><a name="index-draw_002dbezier_002dpath"></a>Procedure: <strong>draw-bezier-path</strong> <em>path [#:segments 32]                                     [#:control-points?] [#:tangents?]                                     [#:control-point-size 8]                                     [#:control-point-color yellow]                                     [#:tangent-color yellow]                                     [#:thickness 0.5] [#:feather 1.0]                                     [#:matrix]</em></dt>
<dd>
<p>Render <var>path</var>, a list of bezier curves.  See the documentation for
<code>draw-bezier-curve</code> for an explanation of all the keyword
arguments.
