Terminé usando el algoritmo de línea de Bresenham (recordando los días de antaño cuando tuve que escribir mis propias rutinas gráficas) ...
- (void) contextEraseLine:(CGContextRef) ctx from:(CGPoint)startPoint to:(CGPoint) endPoint withThickness:(int)thickness {
int x, cx, deltax, xstep,
y, cy, deltay, ystep,
error, st, dupe;
int x0, y0, x1, y1;
x0 = startPoint.x;
y0 = startPoint.y;
x1 = endPoint.x;
y1 = endPoint.y;
// find largest delta for pixel steps
st = (abs(y1 - y0) > abs(x1 - x0));
// if deltay > deltax then swap x,y
if (st) {
(x0 ^= y0); (y0 ^= x0); (x0 ^= y0); // swap(x0, y0);
(x1 ^= y1); (y1 ^= x1); (x1 ^= y1); // swap(x1, y1);
}
deltax = abs(x1 - x0);
deltay = abs(y1 - y0);
error = (deltax / 2);
y = y0;
if (x0 > x1) { xstep = -1; }
else { xstep = 1; }
if (y0 > y1) { ystep = -1; }
else { ystep = 1; }
for ((x = x0); (x != (x1 + xstep)); (x += xstep))
{
(cx = x); (cy = y); // copy of x, copy of y
// if x,y swapped above, swap them back now
if (st) { (cx ^= cy); (cy ^= cx); (cx ^= cy); }
(dupe = 0); // initialize no dupe
if(!dupe) { // if not a dupe, write it out
//NSLog(@"(%2d, %2d)", cx, cy);
CGContextClearRect(ctx, CGRectMake(cx, cy, thickness, thickness));
}
(error -= deltay); // converge toward end of line
if (error < 0) { // not done yet
(y += ystep);
(error += deltax);
}
}
}
¡Uf! Eso es un largo camino por recorrer para crear una línea de borrador (algo) torpe.
Para usarlo, haz algo como:
- (void)eraseStart {
// erase lines
UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(drawingBoard.size);
ctx = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext();
CGContextDrawImage(ctx,CGRectMake(0,0,drawingBoard.size.width, drawingBoard.size.height),[drawingBoard CGImage]);
}
- (void)eraseEnd {
drawingBoard = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
UIGraphicsEndImageContext();
[drawingView removeFromSuperview];
[drawingView release];
drawingView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:drawingBoard];
drawingView.frame = CGRectMake(intEtchX, intEtchY, intEtchWidth, intEtchHeight);
[self.view addSubview:drawingView];
}
Esto supone que ya ha creado un drawingView (UIImageView) y drawingBoard (UIImage).
Luego, para borrar una línea, simplemente haz algo como:
CGContextRef ctx = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext();
[self eraseStart];
[self contextEraseLine:ctx from:CGPointMake (x1, y1) to:CGPointMake (x2, y2) withThickness:10];
[self eraseEnd];
(reemplace x1, y1, x2 e y2 con los valores apropiados) ...
