The other modification between version 3.1 and version 3.2 of the protocol is the mathematical model used for splines. The new version uses X-splines which allows the user to mix interpolation and approximation points in a same curve. More precisely, it means that an X-spline curve is neither an interpolated spline nor an approximated one, it is BOTH (the behaviour of each point is controlled by one single parameter called "shape factor"). For additional information about X-splines, see: "X-Splines: A Spline Model Designed for the End User" by C. Blanc and C. Schlick, Proceedings of SIGGRAPH'95 Caveat: Because spline models of previous versions (quadratic B-splines and Bezier with hidden points) are no longer supported, curves that are present in version 3.1 and older files are automatically converted to X-splines. This translation is only an approximation process. It means that the converted curves are not exactly the same as the original ones. Though the translation usually provides almost identical curves, some hand-fitting may be needed in some pathological cases. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Description of the Fig Format Follows ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (1) The very first line is a comment line containing the name and version: #FIG 3.2 The character # at the first column of a line indicates that the line is a comment line which will be ignored. (2) The first non-comment line consists of the following: string orientation ("Landscape" or "Portrait") string justification ("Center" or "Flush Left") string units ("Metric" or "Inches") string papersize ("Letter", "Legal", "Ledger", "Tabloid", "A", "B", "C", "D", "E", "A4", "A3", "A2", "A1", "A0" and "B5") float magnification (export and print magnification, %) string multiple-page ("Single" or "Multiple" pages) int transparent color (color number for transparent color for GIF export. -2=None, -1=background, 0-31 for standard colors or 32- for user colors) int resolution coord_system (Fig units/inch and coordinate system: 1: origin at lower left corner (NOT USED) 2: upper left) Fig_resolution is the resolution of the figure in the file. Xfig will always write the file with a resolution of 1200ppi so it will scale the figure upon reading it in if its resolution is different from 1200ppi. Pixels are assumed to be square. Xfig will read the orientation string and change the canvas to match either the Landscape or Portrait mode of the figure file. The units specification is self-explanatory. The coordinate_system variable is ignored - the origin is ALWAYS the upper-left corner. ** Coordinates are given in "fig_resolution" units. ** Line thicknesses are given in 80-ths of an inch ("display units"). ** dash-lengths/dot-gaps are given in 80-ths of an inch. (3) The rest of the file contains various objects. An object can be one of six classes (or types). 0) Color pseudo-object. 1) Arc. 2) Ellipse which is a generalization of circle. 3) Polyline which includes polygon and box. 4) Spline which includes closed/open approximated/interpolated/x-spline spline. 5) Text. 6) Compound object which is composed of one or more objects. In the following elaboration on object formats, every value of fig output are separated by blank characters or new line ('\n'). The value of the unused parameters will be -1. Some fields are described as "enumeration type" or "bit vector"; the values which these fields can take are defined in the header file object.h. The pen_style field is unused. These values may be defined in some future version of Fig. The two color fields (pen and fill; pen only, for texts) are defined as follows: -1 = Default 0 = Black 1 = Blue 2 = Green 3 = Cyan 4 = Red 5 = Magenta 6 = Yellow 7 = White 8-11 = four shades of blue (dark to lighter) 12-14 = three shades of green (dark to lighter) 15-17 = three shades of cyan (dark to lighter) 18-20 = three shades of red (dark to lighter) 21-23 = three shades of magenta (dark to lighter) 24-26 = three shades of brown (dark to lighter) 27-30 = four shades of pink (dark to lighter) 31 = Gold values from 32 to 543 (512 total) are user colors and are defined in color pseudo-objects (type 0) For WHITE color, the area fill field is defined as follows: -1 = not filled 0 = black ... values from 1 to 19 are shades of grey, from darker to lighter 20 = white 21-40 not used 41-56 see patterns for colors, below For BLACK or DEFAULT color, the area fill field is defined as follows: -1 = not filled 0 = white ... values from 1 to 19 are shades of grey, from lighter to darker 20 = black 21-40 not used 41-56 see patterns for colors, below For all other colors, the area fill field is defined as follows: -1 = not filled 0 = black ... values from 1 to 19 are "shades" of the color, from darker to lighter. A shade is defined as the color mixed with black 20 = full saturation of the color ... values from 21 to 39 are "tints" of the color from the color to white. A tint is defined as the color mixed with white 40 = white 41 = 30 degree left diagonal pattern 42 = 30 degree right diagonal pattern 43 = 30 degree crosshatch 44 = 45 degree left diagonal pattern 45 = 45 degree right diagonal pattern 46 = 45 degree crosshatch 47 = bricks 48 = circles 49 = horizontal lines 50 = vertical lines 51 = crosshatch 52 = fish scales 53 = small fish scales 54 = octagons 55 = horizontal "tire treads" 56 = vertical "tire treads" The depth field is defined as follows: 0 ... 999 where larger value means object is deeper than (under) objects with smaller depth The line_style field is defined as follows: -1 = Default 0 = Solid 1 = Dashed 2 = Dotted 3 = Dash-dotted 4 = Dash-double-dotted 5 = Dash-triple-dotted The style_val field is defined as the length, in 1/80 inches, of the on/off dashes for dashed lines, and the distance between the dots, in 1/80 inches, for dotted lines. The join_style field is defined FOR LINES only as follows: 0 = Miter (the default in xfig 2.1 and earlier) 1 = Bevel 2 = Round The cap_style field is defined FOR LINES, OPEN SPLINES and ARCS only as follows: 0 = Butt (the default in xfig 2.1 and earlier) 1 = Round 2 = Projecting The arrow_type field is defined for LINES, ARCS and OPEN SPLINES only as follows: 0 = Stick-type (the default in xfig 2.1 and earlier) 1 = Closed triangle: |\ | \ | \ | / | / |/ 2 = Closed with "indented" butt: |\ \ \ \ \ \ \ / / / / / / |/ 3 = Closed with "pointed" butt: |\ / \ / \ / \ \ / \ / \ / |/ The arrow_style field is defined for LINES, ARCS and OPEN SPLINES only as follows: 0 = Hollow (actually filled with white) 1 = Filled with pen_color (3.0) OBJECT DEFINITION: (3.1) Color Pseudo-objects (user-defined colors) This is used to define arbitrary colors beyond the 32 standard colors. The color objects must be defined before any other Fig objects.
