Last Updated : 20 Feb, 2020

The ImagickDraw::setStrokePatternURL() function is an inbuilt function in PHP which is used to set the pattern used for stroking object outlines. Syntax:

bool ImagickDraw::setStrokePatternURL( string $stroke_url )

Parameters:This function accepts a single parameter $stroke_url which holds the URL of stroke pattern. Return Value: This function returns TRUE on success. Below given programs illustrate the ImagickDraw::setStrokePatternURL() function in PHP: Program 1: In this program we will create a rectangle with designed outline.

php

<?php

// Create a new imagick object
$imagick = new Imagick();

// Create a image on imagick object
$imagick->newImage(800, 250, 'black');

// Create a new imagickDraw object
$draw = new ImagickDraw();

// Push the pattern
$draw->pushPattern("MyPattern", 0, 0, 50, 50);
$color = ['red', 'black', 'cyan'];

for ($x = 0; $x < 50; $x += 10) {
    for ($y = 0; $y < 50; $y += 5) {
        $draw->setFillColor($color[$y % 3]);
        $draw->circle($x, $y + 80, $x % 2, $y);
    }
}

// Pop the pattern
$draw->popPattern();

// Set the stroke pattern URL
$draw->setStrokePatternURL('#MyPattern');

// Set the stroke width
$draw->setStrokeWidth(10);

// Draw a rectangle on which pattern is made
$draw->rectangle(200, 50, 500, 200);

// Render the draw commands
$imagick->drawImage($draw);

// Show the output
$imagick->setImageFormat('png');
header("Content-Type: image/png");
echo $imagick->getImageBlob();
?>

Output:

Program 2: In this program we will create a circle with designed outline.

php

<?php

// Create a new imagick object
$imagick = new Imagick();

// Create a image on imagick object
$imagick->newImage(800, 250, 'white');

// Create a new imagickDraw object
$draw = new ImagickDraw();

// Push the pattern
$draw->pushPattern("MyPattern", 0, 0, 50, 50);

for ($x = 0; $x < 50; $x += 10) { 
    for ($y = 0; $y < 50; $y += 5) { 
        $draw->setFillColor('green');
        $draw->rectangle($x, $y + 10, $x % 5, $y); 
    } 
} 

// Pop the pattern
$draw->popPattern();

// Set the stroke pattern URL
$draw->setStrokePatternURL('#MyPattern');

// Set the stroke width
$draw->setStrokeWidth(10);

// Draw a circle
$draw->circle(300, 100, 350, 20);

// Render the draw commands
$imagick->drawImage($draw);

// Show the output
$imagick->setImageFormat('png');
header("Content-Type: image/png");
echo $imagick->getImageBlob();
?>
