Advanced paper methods begin with an underscore, but are public and can be used outside of the Paper instance. These should only be used in advanced cases, or within a Plugin.
_fireEvent
/** * **WARNING:** The underscore "_" denotes that this method should only be * used in plugins. Non-underscore methods should cover all other use cases. * * Fires an event, calling all listeners for that event type. * * Order of operations: * 1. If listeners of evt.eventType exist begins looping through listeners. * 2. Calls each listener with event if evt.canPropagate is true. * 3. After all listeners called, calls evt.defaultAction. If defaultAction * has already been called by a listener, this does nothing. * * @param evt The event you wish to fire. */_fireEvent(evt: PaperEvent<any>): void;
_getDrawSurface
/** * **WARNING:** The underscore "_" denotes that this method should only be * used in plugins. Non-underscore methods should cover all other use cases. * * If you are trying to get the paper to render in your application, you * probably want to use getPaperElement(). * * Returns the SVG element contained within the paper wrapper. */_getDrawSurface(): SVGElement;
_insertPaperDef
/** * **WARNING:** The underscore "_" denotes that this method should only be * used in plugins. Non-underscore methods should cover all other use cases. * * Insert a new def into the defs element within Paper. * * @param def The def to insert. * @param [id] Optional. An ID that can be used to remove the def. */_insertPaperDef(def: SVGElement, id?: string): void;
_removePaperDef
/** * **WARNING:** The underscore "_" denotes that this method should only be * used in plugins. Non-underscore methods should cover all other use cases. * * Remove a def from the defs element within Paper. * * @param id The ID of the def to remove. */_removePaperDef(id: string): void;
