imageline

Draw a line (PHP 4, PHP 5)
bool imageline ( resource image, int x1, int y1, int x2, int y2, int color )

imageline() draws a line between the two given points.

Parameters

image

An image resource, returned by one of the image creation functions, such as imagecreatetruecolor().

x1

x-coordinate for first point

y1

y-coordinate for first point

x2

x-coordinate for second point

y2

y-coordinate for second point

color

The line color. A color identifier created with imagecolorallocate()

Return Values

Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.

Examples

Example 1016. Drawing a thick line

/* this way it works well only for orthogonal lines
