Class Detail
JXG.Point(board, coordinates, attributes)
A point is the basic geometric element. Based on points lines and circles can be constructed which can be intersected which in turn are points again which can be used to construct new lines, circles, polygons, etc. This class holds methods for all kind of points like free points, gliders, and intersection points.

Parameters:
{string|JXG.Board} board
  The board the new point is drawn on.
{Array} coordinates
  An array with the user coordinates of the point.
{Object} attributes
  An object containing visual properties like in JXG.Options#point and JXG.Options#elements, and optional a name and an id.

See:
  JXG.Board#generateName

Method Detail
face(f)
Set the face of a point element.

Parameters:
{String} f
  String which determines the face of the point. See JXG.GeometryElement#face for a list of available faces.

Deprecated:
Use setAttribute()

See:
  JXG.GeometryElement#face

<private> {Boolean} hasPoint(x, y)
Checks whether (x,y) is near the point.

Parameters:
{Number} x
  Coordinate in x direction, screen coordinates.
{Number} y
  Coordinate in y direction, screen coordinates.

Returns:
  {Boolean} True if (x,y) is near the point, False otherwise.

{Boolean} isOn(el, tol)
Test if the point is on (is incident with) element "el".

Parameters:
{JXG.GeometryElement} el
{Number} tol

Returns:
  {Boolean}

Examples:

    var circ = board.create('circle', [[-2, -2], 1]);
    var seg = board.create('segment', [[-1, -3], [0,0]]);
    var line = board.create('line', [[1, 3], [2, -2]]);
    var po = board.create('point', [-1, 0], {color: 'blue'});
    var curve = board.create('functiongraph', ['sin(x)'], {strokeColor: 'blue'});
    var pol = board.create('polygon', [[2,2], [4,2], [4,3]], {strokeColor: 'blue'});

    var point = board.create('point', [-1, 1], {
                  attractors: [line, seg, circ, po, curve, pol],
                  attractorDistance: 0.2
                });

    var txt = board.create('text', [-4, 3, function() {
                 return 'point on line: ' + point.isOn(line) + '
    ' +
                    'point on seg: ' + point.isOn(seg) + '
    ' +
                    'point on circ = ' + point.isOn(circ) + '
    ' +
                    'point on point = ' + point.isOn(po) + '
    ' +
                    'point on curve = ' + point.isOn(curve) + '
    ' +
                    'point on polygon = ' + point.isOn(pol) + '
    ';
    }]);

makeIntersection(el1,, el2, i, j)
Convert the point to intersection point and update the construction. To move the point visual onto the intersection, a call of board update is necessary.

Parameters:
{String|Object} el1,
  el2, i, j The intersecting objects and the numbers.
el2
i
j

{*} normalizeFace(s)

Parameters:
s

Deprecated:
Use JXG#normalizePointFace instead

Returns:
  {*}

<private> setStyle(i)
Set the style of a point. Used for GEONExT import and should not be used to set the point's face and size.

Parameters:
{Number} i
  Integer to determine the style.

size(s)
Set the size of a point element

Parameters:
{Number} s
  Integer which determines the size of the point.

Deprecated:
Use setAttribute()

See:
  JXG.GeometryElement#size

update(fromParent)
Updates the position of the point.

Parameters:
fromParent

<private> updateRenderer()
Calls the renderer to update the drawing.

{JXG.CoordsElement} updateTransform(fromParent)
Applies the transformations of the element to JXG.Point#baseElement. Point transformations are relative to a base element.

Parameters:
{Boolean} fromParent
  True if the drag comes from a child element. This is the case if a line through two points is dragged. Otherwise, the element is the drag element and we apply the the inverse transformation to the baseElement if is different from the element.

Returns:
  {JXG.CoordsElement} Reference to this object.
