:py:mod:`ImageDraw` Module
==========================
2013-10-12 11:52:01 +04:00
The :py:mod:`ImageDraw` module provide simple 2D graphics for
:py:class:`~PIL.Image.Image` objects. You can use this module to create new
images, annotate or retouch existing images, and to generate graphics on the
fly for web use.
For a more advanced drawing library for PIL, see the `aggdraw module`_.

Example: Draw a gray cross over an image

Concepts
--------
Coordinates
^^^^^^^^^^^
The graphics interface uses the same coordinate system as PIL itself, with (0,
0) in the upper left corner.
Colors
^^^^^^
To specify colors, you can use numbers or tuples just as you would use with
:py:meth:`PIL.Image.Image.new` or :py:meth:`PIL.Image.Image.putpixel`. For “1”,
“L”, and “I” images, use integers. For “RGB” images, use a 3-tuple containing
integer values. For “F” images, use integer or floating point values.
For palette images (mode “P”), use integers as color indexes. In 1.1.4 and
later, you can also use RGB 3-tuples or color names (see below). The drawing
layer will automatically assign color indexes, as long as you dont draw with
more than 256 colors.
Color Names
^^^^^^^^^^^
See :ref:`color-names` for the color names supported by Pillow.
Fonts
^^^^^
PIL can use bitmap fonts or OpenType/TrueType fonts.
Bitmap fonts are stored in PILs own format, where each font typically consists
of a two files, one named .pil and the other usually named .pbm. The former
contains font metrics, the latter raster data.
To load a bitmap font, use the load functions in the :py:mod:`~PIL.ImageFont`
module.
To load a OpenType/TrueType font, use the truetype function in the
:py:mod:`~PIL.ImageFont` module. Note that this function depends on third-party
libraries, and may not available in all PIL builds.
Functions
---------
.. py:class:: PIL.ImageDraw.Draw(im, mode=None)
Creates an object that can be used to draw in the given image.
Note that the image will be modified in place.
Methods
-------
.. py:method:: PIL.ImageDraw.Draw.arc(xy, start, end, fill=None)
Draws an arc (a portion of a circle outline) between the start and end
angles, inside the given bounding box.
:param xy: Four points to define the bounding box. Sequence of either
``[(x0, y0), (x1, y1)]`` or ``[x0, y0, x1, y1]``.
:param outline: Color to use for the outline.
.. py:method:: PIL.ImageDraw.Draw.bitmap(xy, bitmap, fill=None)
Draws a bitmap (mask) at the given position, using the current fill color
for the non-zero portions. The bitmap should be a valid transparency mask
(mode “1”) or matte (mode “L” or “RGBA”).
This is equivalent to doing ``image.paste(xy, color, bitmap)``.
To paste pixel data into an image, use the
:py:meth:`~PIL.Image.Image.paste` method on the image itself.
.. py:method:: PIL.ImageDraw.Draw.chord(xy, start, end, fill=None, outline=None)
Same as :py:meth:`~PIL.ImageDraw.Draw.arc`, but connects the end points
with a straight line.
:param xy: Four points to define the bounding box. Sequence of either
``[(x0, y0), (x1, y1)]`` or ``[x0, y0, x1, y1]``.
:param outline: Color to use for the outline.
:param fill: Color to use for the fill.
.. py:method:: PIL.ImageDraw.Draw.ellipse(xy, fill=None, outline=None)
Draws an ellipse inside the given bounding box.
:param xy: Four points to define the bounding box. Sequence of either
``[(x0, y0), (x1, y1)]`` or ``[x0, y0, x1, y1]``.
:param outline: Color to use for the outline.
:param fill: Color to use for the fill.
.. py:method:: PIL.ImageDraw.Draw.line(xy, fill=None, width=0)
Draws a line between the coordinates in the **xy** list.
:param xy: Sequence of either 2-tuples like ``[(x, y), (x, y), ...]`` or
numeric values like ``[x, y, x, y, ...]``.
:param fill: Color to use for the line.
:param width: The line width, in pixels. Note that line
joins are not handled well, so wide polylines will not look good.
.. versionadded:: 1.1.5
.. note:: This option was broken until version 1.1.6.
.. py:method:: PIL.ImageDraw.Draw.pieslice(xy, start, end, fill=None, outline=None)
Same as arc, but also draws straight lines between the end points and the
center of the bounding box.
:param xy: Four points to define the bounding box. Sequence of either
``[(x0, y0), (x1, y1)]`` or ``[x0, y0, x1, y1]``.
:param outline: Color to use for the outline.
:param fill: Color to use for the fill.
.. py:method:: PIL.ImageDraw.Draw.point(xy, fill=None)
Draws points (individual pixels) at the given coordinates.
:param xy: Sequence of either 2-tuples like ``[(x, y), (x, y), ...]`` or
numeric values like ``[x, y, x, y, ...]``.
:param fill: Color to use for the point.
.. py:method:: PIL.ImageDraw.Draw.polygon(xy, fill=None, outline=None)
Draws a polygon.
The polygon outline consists of straight lines between the given
coordinates, plus a straight line between the last and the first
coordinate.
:param xy: Sequence of either 2-tuples like ``[(x, y), (x, y), ...]`` or
numeric values like ``[x, y, x, y, ...]``.
:param outline: Color to use for the outline.
:param fill: Color to use for the fill.
.. py:method:: PIL.ImageDraw.Draw.rectangle(xy, fill=None, outline=None)
Draws a rectangle.
:param xy: Four points to define the bounding box. Sequence of either
``[(x0, y0), (x1, y1)]`` or ``[x0, y0, x1, y1]``. The second point
is just outside the drawn rectangle.
:param outline: Color to use for the outline.
:param fill: Color to use for the fill.
.. py:method:: PIL.ImageDraw.Draw.shape(shape, fill=None, outline=None)
.. warning:: This method is experimental.
Draw a shape.
.. py:method:: PIL.ImageDraw.Draw.text(xy, text, fill=None, font=None, anchor=None)
Draws the string at the given position.
:param xy: Top left corner of the text.
:param text: Text to be drawn.
:param font: An :py:class:`~PIL.ImageFont.ImageFont` instance.
:param fill: Color to use for the text.
.. py:method:: PIL.ImageDraw.Draw.textsize(text, font=None)
Return the size of the given string, in pixels.
:param text: Text to be measured.
:param font: An :py:class:`~PIL.ImageFont.ImageFont` instance.
Legacy API
----------
The :py:class:`~PIL.ImageDraw.Draw` class contains a constructor and a number
of methods which are provided for backwards compatibility only. For this to
work properly, you should either use options on the drawing primitives, or
these methods. Do not mix the old and new calling conventions.
.. py:function:: PIL.ImageDraw.ImageDraw(image)
:rtype: :py:class:`~PIL.ImageDraw.Draw`
.. py:method:: PIL.ImageDraw.Draw.setink(ink)
.. deprecated:: 1.1.5
Sets the color to use for subsequent draw and fill operations.
.. py:method:: PIL.ImageDraw.Draw.setfill(fill)
.. deprecated:: 1.1.5
Sets the fill mode.
If the mode is 0, subsequently drawn shapes (like polygons and rectangles)
are outlined. If the mode is 1, they are filled.
.. py:method:: PIL.ImageDraw.Draw.setfont(font)
.. deprecated:: 1.1.5
Sets the default font to use for the text method.
:param font: An :py:class:`~PIL.ImageFont.ImageFont` instance.
