I have a function which creates a polygon of blue color. I call this function inside a loop of 128 iterations. For every iteration, i change the value of x and y so that my polygon is rendered on new location. This goes fine and i get 128 new polygons on my image after running the script. But if change the number to 129, the 129th polygon is transparent or what i cannot guess. It just does not display or render at all. Is this a bug or some mistake with my code? I am using php version 5.1.4 that came with WAMP5 Version 1.6.3 my code is - <?php $im = imagecreate(600, 400); $x = 20; $y = 350; for($i=1;$i<=128;$i++) //create a polygon 128 times { drawPoly($x,$y,$im); $x = $x+2; $y = $y-2; } header('Content-type: image/png'); imagepng($im); imagedestroy($im); function drawPoly($xCoord,$yCoord,$im) { $x1 = $x2 = $xCoord; $x3 = $x4 = $xCoord + 70; $y1 = $y4 = $yCoord; $y2 = $y3 = $yCoord + 30; $Poly = array(0 => $x1,1 => $y1,2 => $x2,3 => $y2,4 => $x3,5 => $y3,6 => $x4,7 => $y4); $bg = imagecolorallocate($im, 150, 150, 150); $blue = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 0, 255); imagefilledpolygon($im, $Poly, 4, $blue); } ?>
The issue is solved. It was the problem with the code. i took this line $bg = imagecolorallocate($im, 150, 150, 150); outside the function drawPoly(), and everything worked as expected. the new updated code is - <?php $im = imagecreate(600, 400); $bg = imagecolorallocate($im, 150, 150, 150); $x = 20; $y = 350; for($i=1;$i<=150;$i++) //create a polygon 128 times { drawPoly($x,$y,$im); $x = $x+2; $y = $y-2; } header('Content-type: image/png'); imagepng($im); imagedestroy($im); function drawPoly($xCoord,$yCoord,$im) { $x1 = $x2 = $xCoord; $x3 = $x4 = $xCoord + 70; $y1 = $y4 = $yCoord; $y2 = $y3 = $yCoord + 30; $Poly = array(0 => $x1,1 => $y1,2 => $x2,3 => $y2,4 => $x3,5 => $y3,6 => $x4,7 => $y4); $blue = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 0, 255); imagefilledpolygon($im, $Poly, 4, $blue); } ?> But i still want to know why this happened and why it worked when i took that line outside the function?
