yext. For example,
\filled-box #'(-.3 . 1.8) #'(-.3 . 1.8) #0
creates a box extending horizontally from -0.3 to 1.8 and
vertically from -0.3 up to 1.8, with corners formed from a
circle of diameter 0 (i.e., sharp corners).
\markup {
\filled-box #'(0 . 4) #'(0 . 4) #0
\filled-box #'(0 . 2) #'(-4 . 2) #0.4
\filled-box #'(1 . 8) #'(0 . 7) #0.2

-
Draw horizontal brackets around arg.
\markup {
\hbracket {
\line {
one two three
}
}
}
-
\parenthesize
arg (markup)
-
Draw parentheses around arg. This is useful for parenthesizing
a column containing several lines of text.
\markup {
\line {
\parenthesize {
\column {
foo
bar
}
}
\override #'(angularity . 2) {
\parenthesize {

-
\path
thickness (number) commands (list)
-
Draws a path with line thickness thickness according to the
directions given in commands. commands is a list of
lists where the car
of each sublist is a drawing command and
the cdr
comprises the associated arguments for each command.
Line-cap styles and line-join styles may be customized by
overriding the line-cap-style
and line-join-style
properties, respectively. Available line-cap styles are
'butt
, 'round
, and 'square
. Available
line-join styles are 'miter
, 'round
, and
'bevel
.
The property filled
specifies whether or not the path is
filled with color.
There are seven commands available to use in the list
commands
: moveto
, rmoveto
, lineto
,
rlineto
, curveto
, rcurveto
, and
closepath
. Note that the commands that begin with r
are the relative variants of the other three commands.
The commands moveto
, rmoveto
, lineto
, and
rlineto
take 2 arguments; they are the X and Y coordinates
for the destination point.
The commands curveto
and rcurveto
create cubic
Bézier curves, and take 6 arguments; the first two are the X and Y
coordinates for the first control point, the second two are the X
and Y coordinates for the second control point, and the last two
are the X and Y coordinates for the destination point.
The closepath
command takes zero arguments and closes the
current subpath in the active path.
Note that a sequence of commands must begin with a
moveto
or rmoveto
to work with the SVG output.
samplePath =
#'((moveto 0 0)
(lineto -1 1)
(lineto 1 1)
(lineto 1 -1)
(curveto -5 -5 -5 5 -1 0)

command string.

-
\rounded-box
arg (markup)
-
Draw a box with rounded corners around arg. Looks at thickness
,
box-padding
and font-size
properties to determine line
thickness and padding around the markup; the corner-radius
property
makes it possible to define another shape for the corners (default is 1).

\scale
factor-pair (pair of numbers) arg (markup)
-
Scale arg. factor-pair is a pair of numbers
representing the scaling-factor in the X and Y axes.
Negative values may be used to produce mirror images.
\markup {
\line {
\scale #'(2 . 1)
stretched
\scale #'(1 . -1)
