Using #PB_Path_Connected in VectorDraw

[davido]

Joining lines to arcs with #PB_Path_Connected, produces very neat corners.
I wished to do the same with two arcs.
Is this possible?
The manual seems to indicate that it only works with lines and circles.
Can anyone help, please?

I've included my test which the first part does not work.
The second part seems to indicate some anomaly with #PB_Path_Connected, maybe.

Code: Select all

  If OpenWindow(0, 0, 0, 800, 600, "#PB_Path_Connected, tests", #PB_Window_SystemMenu | #PB_Window_ScreenCentered)
    CanvasGadget(0, 0, 0, 800, 600)

    If StartVectorDrawing(CanvasVectorOutput(0))
      ;<> Make a continuous path from arc1 to arc2
      ;   Appears to get the join wrong and produces a spurious line beneath
      VectorSourceColor($ff0000ff)
      AddPathCircle(200, 200, 100,180,0)
      AddPathCircle(250, 200, 50, 0, 180, #PB_Path_CounterClockwise | #PB_Path_Connected)
      StrokePath(10)
      
      ;<> StrokePath() should start a new path, yet the new arc is joint to the path above.
      ;   Note that the join of the two arcs on the right is correct.
      ;   I would prefer the neater join made by a connect path.
      AddPathCircle(400, 200, 100,180,0)
      AddPathCircle(450, 200, 50, 0, 180, #PB_Path_CounterClockwise)
      StrokePath(10)
      StopVectorDrawing()
    EndIf
    
    Repeat
      Event = WaitWindowEvent()
    Until Event = #PB_Event_CloseWindow
  EndIf

Hello davido!
Since I didn't understand and saw the problem on linux, i've tried the code on XP. It's again an vector library issue on Windows and works on Linux as expected.

Best regards, Charly

Hi Charly,

Thank you, very much.

For some reason I assumed this problem also occurred on my MacBook.
However, having just re-checked I found, just as you did, it worked perfectly.
Naturally I feel most embarrassed about this. My apologies for putting you to so much trouble.
So the problem only exists on Windows.

Regards,
Dave
