Line

home Defines a line providing start and end point

Yaml

A: point(-5,-5)
B: point(5,5)
line: Line(A,B)

Python

A = point(-5,-5)
B = point(5,5)
line = Line(A,B)

Rectangle

home Defines a rectangle providing bottom left corner, x dimension, y dimension

Yaml

L: 8
h: 5
p: point(-(L/2),-(h/2))
rectangle: Rectangle(p,L,h)

Python

L = 8
h = 5
p = point(-(L/2),-(h/2))
rectangle = Rectangle(p,L,h)

Circle

home Defines a circle proving center and radius

Yaml

circle: Circle(point(0,0),5)

Python

circle = Circle(point(0,0),5)

Triangle

home Defines a triangle providing three corner

Yaml

L: 3.0
W: 4.0
triangle: Triangle(p1=(W/2,0), p2=(3*W/2,W/2), p3=(4*W/5.,L))

Python

L = 3.0
W = 4.0
triangle = Triangle(p1=(W/2,0), p2=(3*W/2,W/2), p3=(4*W/5.,L))

Distance with text

home Defines a sizing mark with a label

Yaml

fontsize: 14
t: r'$ 2\pi R^2 $'  # sample text
dwt: Distance_wText((-4,0), (8, 5), t, fontsize)

Python

fontsize=14
t = r'$ 2\pi R^2 $'  # sample text
dwt = Distance_wText((-4,0), (8, 5), t, fontsize)

Text

home Defines a given text positionned at the provided point

Yaml

text: Text(r'$c$', point(0,0))

Python

text = Text(r'$c$', point(0,0))

Cross

home Defines a cross positionned at the provided point

Yaml

cross: Cross(point(0,0))

Python

cross = Cross(point(1,0))

Axis

home Defines an axis at the given point with a given label

Yaml

axis: Axis((0,0), 5, 'x', rotation_angle=0)

Python

axis = Axis((0,0), 5, 'x', rotation_angle=0)

Arc

home Defines an Arc providing a center point, a radius, a starting angle and an angle (rotates clock-wise)

Yaml

center: point(0,0)
radius: 1
angle: 120
start_angle: 180-angle
arc_angle: angle
arc: Arc(center, radius, start_angle, arc_angle)

Python

center = point(0,0)
radius = 1
angle = 120
start_angle = 180-angle
arc_angle = angle
arc = Arc(center, radius, start_angle, arc_angle)

Code to display the above defined shapes

home In order to display the various shapes, use the following code in a jupyter notebook

[1]: %matplotlib widget
[2]: from pysketcher import *
[3]: drawing_tool.set_coordinate_system(xmin=-10, xmax=10,ymin=-10, ymax=10,axis=True)
[4]: drawing_tool.mpl.gcf().canvas

for Yaml, you need to add those extra steps

head = """\
libraries: ["from math import tan, radians, sin, cos","from pysketcher import *"]
myfig={}
sketchParse(head,myfig)

The above code initialize myfig sketch space loading into it libraries references so samples can use tan, radians, si, cos and all the objects defined in pysketcher (the module name of jupytersketcher)

Yaml

myfig={}
sketch="""
# put here the yaml 'object' definition
"""
drawing_tool.erase()
sketchParse(sketch,myfig)
# replace 'object' by the actual one
d = myfig['object'].draw() 
drawing_tool.display()

Python

drawing_tool.erase()
# put the code of the object case here
# replace object by the actual name line, rectangle, circle...
object.draw()
drawing_tool.display()
