Star Toolbar

The Star Toolbar is a set of graphical widgets used to draw or edit star or regular polygon shapes.

Overview

Functions:

• Flatsided: Type of shape
  • Polygon: Regular polygon (with one handle) instead of a star
  • Star: Star instead of a regular polygon (with one handle)
• Corners: Number of corners of a polygon or star
• Spoke ratio: Base radius to tip radius ratio
• Rounded: How much rounded are the corners (0 for sharp)
• Randomized: Scatter randomly the corners and angles
• Defaults: Reset shape parameters to defaults (use Inkscape Preferences > Tools to change defaults)

Preferences

• /tools/shapes/star/isflatsided: Flatsided parameter as Boolean
• /tools/shapes/star/magnitude: Corners parameter as Integer
• /tools/shapes/star/proportion: Spoke ratio parameter as Double
• /tools/shapes/star/randomized: Randomized parameter as Double
• /tools/shapes/star/rounded: Rounded parameter as Double

Actual behaviours:

• Parameters are stored in Preferences
• Defaults values (for reset) are hard coded in void sp_stb_defaults()
