top | item 40890718 (no title) martin293 | 1 year ago Could anyone please explain what stroke expansion actually is either on high school or math undergrad level? discuss order hn newest djoldman|1 year ago A path is a line with zero or more curves, finite length, and zero width.A stroked path is a path with a non-zero width.Stroke expansion is going from a path to a stroked path.Turns out that the math is quite complex.I'm in search of a precise and consensus definition of a path with non-zero width... does anyone know where that is in the svg spec? scotty79|1 year ago Imagine basic graphics program. Stroke expansion is how you go from a line drawn with a pencil to the one drawn with some brush.It's how you go from drawing 1px width line to drawing paint covered area left by some brush following this line.
