I have an SVG image loaded as a GraphicsNode object. This SVG image has
a clip area that I want to render. So far, this is how I am doing it:
// find the bounds of the clip area
int width = graphicsNode.getPrimitiveBounds().getBounds().width
+ 2;
int height =
graphicsNode.getPrimitiveBounds().getBounds().height + 2;
// create an Graphics object the same size as the clip area (for
my PDF document)
PdfTemplate template = pdf.createTemplate(width, height);
Graphics2D graphics = template.createGraphics(width, height);
// paint the SVG onto the graphics
try {
graphicsNode.primitivePaint(graphics);
} finally {
graphics.dispose();
}
This works fine when the clip area is positioned at the (0, 0) x - y
coordinates. This breaks down, however, with the clip area is in the
"middle" of the entire SVG image. I know this should be straightforward
(maybe something like using the setClip() method? Use a filter?), but I
am struggling with exactly how to do this. The Batik API is very
specialize to the graphics domain, so it is very hard for the lay person
to grok. I have searched for clip example with no success.
I have been struggling with this for days now and cannot figure how to
do this. Any help would be appreciated.
