SVGGraph options: precision

« Return to previous page

Option name:

precision

Default value:

5

Added in version:

1.0

Data type:

integer [?]

The datatypes used in this documentation for specifying SVGGraph options are described below. All options can be a literal value of the data type described, a variable containing the data type, or an expression that will produce the data type when evaluated (and they must always be valid PHP expressions).

array: An array, the number and data types of its members will depend on the option for which is it used.
boolean: A boolean TRUE or FALSE value, or any values that convert easily such as 1, "1", 0 and "".
callback: A callable function, which can be either the name of a function or an anonymous function itself.
colour: Any of the colour values supported by SVG inside a single or double quoted string. These include three and six digit hex codes, RGB and RGBA colours, and colour names. SVG uses "none" for no colour, which generally leaves things transparent.
fill: A colour value or one of the gradients and patterns supported by SVGGraph. See the SVGGraph colours page for details.
integer: A negative or positive whole number or 0.
measurement: An integer or float value, or a string containing a number followed by one of these CSS units: px, in, cm, mm, pt, pc.
number: Any number supported by PHP, for example 1 or -3.2 or 1.63e5 or M_PI.
string: Single or double quoted strings. Remember to double-quote your strings if you are inserting a line break:
"Line 1\nLine 2".

Sets the precision of values output in the SVG content.

This option uses ini_set('precision', $precision) to set the output precision of floating point numbers for the duration of the SVG code generation. The previous value is restored afterwards.

Example snippet using default SVGGraph precision of 5:

<path d="M39 141.47L385 159.29" stroke="#f00"/>

The same content using the default PHP precision of 14:

<path d="M39 141.47272727273L385 159.29090909091" stroke="#f00"/>
