Welcome to Dojo

Dojo consists of three sub-projects:
●

Dojo Core (a.k.a. Dojo)
–

Includes Dojo Base — always available basic
●

functionality.
Dijit
–

Set of core widgets aimed at simplification of UI
●

creation.
DojoX (a.k.a. Dojo eXtended/eXperimental)
–

Advanced functionality, experimental code.
●

DojoX GFX is part of DojoX.
●

Intro I

GFX loosely follows the SVG model.
●

The length unit is pixel.
●

Point definition:
●

{x: 0, y: 0}
–

JavaScript-specific features:
●

Duck-typing is used where possible.
–

All setters are chained.
–

Intro II

At present time following backends are
●

supported:
SVG.
–

VML.
–

Silverlight.
–

We strive to be as portable as possible,
●

but restricted (mostly by VML).
Always test your program in target
–
environments!

Intro III

GFX defines six classes of objects:
●

Shape.
–

Important shape: group.
●

Fill.
–

Stroke.
–

Font.
–

Matrix.
–

Surface.
–

Serves as a top-level group.
●

Colors I

GFX includes dojo.Color() by default.
●

dojo.Color (part of Dojo Base):
●

Defines common color names,
–
representations (hex, rgb/rgba, array).
dojo.colors module adds the CSS3 support
–
and extended set of color names.
GFX accepts a large set of color
●

definitions directly.

Colors II

Examples of color “red”:
●

Strings:
–

“red”, “#F00”, “#FF0000”, “rgb(255, 0, 0)”,
●

“rgba(255, 0, 0, 1)”.
Arrays:
–

[255, 0, 0], [255, 0, 0, 1]
●

CSS3 strings (needs dojo.colors):
–

“rgb(100%, 0%, 0%)”, “rgba(100%, 0%, 0%, 1)”,
●

“hsl(0, 100%, 50%)”, “hsla(0, 100%, 50%, 1)”
●

new dojo.Color(255, 0, 0)
–

Shapes I

Following shapes are defined:
●

Basic shapes: rectangle, ellipse,
–
polyline/polygon, path, image, text.
Convenient shapes: circle, line.
–

Experimental shapes: textpath.
–

Cheatsheet for all definition objects:
●

dojox/gfx/_base.js (right after utility
–
definitions).

Shapes II

Each shape is made up of two objects:
●

Shape definition.
–

Describes a geometry.
●

Simple JSON object.
●

Can be serialized, and streamed.
–

Full support for duck-typing.
●

No need to specify default values.
–

Shape object.
–

Represents an instantiated shape.
●

Provides an OO-based interface.
●

Keeps a shape definition object.
●

Shapes III

Every shape supports following methods:
●

getShape/setShape.
–

Access to the underlying shape definition.
●

Each shape accepts only shape-specific
●

definitions.
getFill/setFill, getStroke/setStroke.
–

Access to current fill and stroke definitions.
●

getTransform/setTransform,
–
applyRightTransform/applyLeftTransform.
Transformation manipulations.
●

applyTransform == applyRightTransform.
●

Shapes IV

Every shape supports following methods:
●

moveToFront/moveToBack.
–

Z-order manipulations.
●

getParent, remove.
–

Parent-related manipulations.
●

connect/disconnect.
–

Event processing.
●

Experimental introspection methods.
–

Shape objects are defined by renderers.
●

Events

Supported events:
●

onclick
–

onmousedown
–

onmouseup
–

onmousemove
–

onmouseenter
–

onmouseleave
–

onkeydown
–

onkeyup
–

Surface I

Defines a drawing area.
●

Serves as a top-level group object.
●

Defines shape creators:
●

createPath, createRect, createCircle,
–
createEllipse,createLine, createPolyline,
createImage, createText, createTextPath.
Shape's type is implied.
●

createShape.
–

You should specify a type.
●

createGroup.
–

Surface II

Surface is a renderer-specific object.
●

It supports the same event interface as
●

shapes.
Surface creation:
●

dojox.gfx.createSurface(domNode, width,
–
height).

Rectangle

Definition with defaults:
●

{type: quot;rectquot;, x: 0, y: 0, width: 100, height:
–
100, r: 0}.
As always you can skip any default values.
–

What is “r”? It is a radius of rounded corners.
–

Creator method:
●

createRect(rect).
–

Stroke I

●

{type: quot;strokequot;, color: quot;blackquot;, style: quot;solidquot;,
–
width: 1, cap: quot;buttquot;, join: 4}.
Styles:
–

“Solid”, “ShortDash”, “ShortDot”, “ShortDashDot”,
●

“ShortDashDotDot”, “Dot”, “Dash”, “LongDash”,
“DashDot”, “LongDashDot”, “LongDashDotDot”.
Caps:
–

“Butt”, “Round”, “Square”.
●

Stroke II

●

{type: quot;strokequot;, color: quot;blackquot;, style: quot;solidquot;,
–
width: 1, cap: quot;buttquot;, join: 4}.
Joins:
–

“Round”, “Square”.
●

If number, miter-type join is used.
●

“null” means “use default”, which is “no
●

stroke” at the moment.
A string is interpreted as a solid color
●

stroke.

Fill I

There are four types of fill:
●

Solid fill (specified by a color object).
–

Shortcuts are okay.
●

Linear gradient.
–

Radial gradient.
–

Tiled pattern.
–

null — use default (“no fill”).
–

Fill II

Linear gradient definition with defaults:
●

{type: quot;linearquot;, x1: 0, y1: 0, x2: 100, y2: 100,
–
colors: [{offset: 0, color: quot;blackquot;}, {offset: 1,
color: quot;whitequot;}]}
colors member defines an array of color
–
stops.
Be careful:
●

VML renderer doesn't support opacity for
–
color stops.

Fill III

Radial gradient definition with defaults:
●

{type: quot;radialquot;, cx: 0, cy: 0, r: 100, colors:
–
[{offset: 0, color: quot;blackquot;}, {offset: 1, color:
quot;whitequot;}]}
Very similar to the linear gradient.
–

Be careful:
●

VML uses very peculiar (and visually
–
incompatible) algorithm to render the radial
gradient.

Fill IV

Pattern definition with defaults:
●

{type: quot;patternquot;, x: 0, y: 0, width: 0, height:
–
0, src: quot;quot;}
Similar to the image shape definition.
–

Be careful:
●

Firefox SVG does not implement this fill style
–
yet.

Line

●

{type: quot;linequot;, x1: 0, y1: 0, x2: 100, y2: 100}
–

Creator method:
●

createLine(line).
–

This is a redundant shape.
●

Can be easily simulated by polyline.
–

Yet frequently asked for especially by
–
novices.
Obviously it doesn't support setFill().
●

Group I

Defines all creators just like Surface.
●

Used to group other shapes.
●

Can have other groups as children.
–

Propagates events, and transformations.
–

Propagation for fill/stroke/font is planned.
–

No shape definition.
●

Creator method:
●

createGroup().
–

Group II

Group-specific API:
●

add(shape)
–

Adds a shape to the group removing it from the
●

previous parent.
remove(shape)
–

Removes a shape from the group making it stand-
●

alone.
clear()
–

Removes all shapes.
●

Circle

●

{type: quot;circlequot;, cx: 0, cy: 0, r: 100}
–

Creator method:
●

createCircle(circle).
–

This is a redundant shape.
●

Can be easily simulated by ellipse.
–

Yet frequently asked for especially by
–
novices.

Ellipse

●

{type: quot;ellipsequot;, cx: 0, cy: 0, rx: 200, ry: 100}
–

Creator method:
●

createEllipse(ellipse).
–

Polyline

●

{type: quot;polylinequot;, points: []}
–

points is an array of points.
–

Array of numbers is permitted.
●

In this case numbers should go in pairs in [x, y]
●

order.
Doubles for polygon.
●

If you want a closed polygon, do it explicitly.
–

Creator method:
●

createPolyline(polyline)
–

Path I

●

{type: quot;pathquot;, path: quot;quot;}
–

path uses the SVG notation.
–

Path is a super-shape:
●

It can emulate all other geometric shapes.
–

Exceptions: image, text, textpath.
–

Creator method:
●

createPath(path)
–

Path II

Path-specific API:
●

getAbsoluteMode/setAbsoluteMode
–

true for absolute mode, and false for relative
●

mode.
getLastPosition
–

Returns a point in absolute coordinates.
●

moveTo, lineTo, hLineTo, vLineTo, closePath
–

curveTo, smoothCurveTo, qCurveTo,
–
qSmoothCurveTo
arcTo
–

Path III

Shortcut:
●

If you specify a string, creator assumes it is a
–
path definition.
Be careful:
●

VML doesn't support sub-pixel coordinates.
–

Image I

●

{type: quot;imagequot;, x: 0, y: 0, width: 0, height: 0,
–
src: quot;quot;}
By specifying different width/height, you can
–
stretch the image.
Obviously setFill/setStroke are not
●

supported.

Image II

Be careful:
●

VML has problems displaying PNG files with
–
opacity.
Silverlight doesn't support GIF.
–

Text I

●

{type: quot;textquot;, x: 0, y: 0, text: quot;quot;, align: quot;startquot;,
–
decoration: quot;nonequot;, rotated: false, kerning:
true}
Alignment:
–

“start”, “end”, “middle” relative to the anchor
●

point.
Decoration:
–

“underline”, “none”.
●

Rotated:
–

If true, rotates each character 90 degrees CCW.
●

Text II

Text-specific methods:
●

getFont/setFont
–
Assigns a font definition to the shape.
–

Be careful:
●

Kerning is not supported by some renderers.
–

Safari 3 beta doesn't support rotation.
–

Font I

●

{type: quot;fontquot;, style: quot;normalquot;, variant:
–
quot;normalquot;, weight: quot;normalquot;, size: quot;10ptquot;,
family: quot;serifquot;}
Styles:
–

“normal”, “italic”, “oblique”.
●

Variants:
–

“normal”, “small-caps”.
●

Weights:
–

“normal”, “bold”, numeric weight 100-900.
●

Font II

family is a font name.
●

Predefined names: “serif”, “sans-serif”,
–
“times”, “helvetica”, “monotone”.
This fonts are mapped to platform-specific
●

equivalents.
VML on IE7 ignores family and always uses
–
Arial.
SVG on Firefox ignores family in many cases.
–

Silverlight supports only predefined fonts.
–

TextPath

Be careful:
●

Highly experimental.
–

Inconsistent support.
–

API is unfinished.
–

●

{type: quot;textpathquot;, text: quot;quot;, align: quot;startquot;,
–
decoration: quot;nonequot;, rotated: false, kerning:
true }
Supports a subset of the text definition.
–

Matrix I

Standard 2D matrix:
●

{xx: 1, xy: 0, yx: 0, yy: 1, dx: 0, dy: 0}
–

You can use duck-typing skipping defaults.
–

Defined in dojox.gfx.matrix as Matrix2D.
–

Propagated up to dojo.gfx.Matrix2D.
–

Matrix II

Supports all common operations:
●

Predefined constants:
–

identity, flipX, flipY, flipXY.
●

Translation:
–

translate(x, y)
●

Scaling:
–

scale(sx, sy)
●

Rotation:
–

rotate(rad) — accepts radians.
●

rotateg(deg) — accepts degrees.
●

Matrix III

●

Skewing:
–

skewX(rad)
●

skewXg(deg)
●

skewY(rad)
●

skewYg(deg)
●

Matrix IV

●

General transformations:
–

invert(matrix)
●

reflect(a, b) — forms a reflection matrix.
●

project(a, b) — forms an orthogonal projection
●

matrix.
normalize(matrix) — produces Matrix2D, if
●

necessary.
clone(matrix) — creates a copy.
●

multiply(m1, m2, ...)
●

multiplyPoint(matrix, x, y)
●

Matrix V

Provides “at” versions for some
●

transformations.
“At” implements the “transform at the point”
–
operation:
xxxAt(arg, x, y) is equivalent to:
●

translate(x, y) * xxx(arg) * translate(-x, -y)
●

Provided methods:
–

scaleAt, rotateAt, rotategAt, skewXAt, skewXgAt,
●

skewYAt, skewYgAt.

Matrix VI

Shortcuts:
●

Array of matrices is normalized by
–
multiplying its elements sequentially left to
right.
By default all incoming matrices are
–
normalized in GFX.
