Vector Graphics Editor

A very odd looking slice of pizza made in Vector Graphics Editor:

What is it, in short?

A simple vector graphics editor made in Java Swing. Offers basic functionality such as adding, removing and updating basic shapes, as well as exporting the image in a native or SVG file format.

What can it do?

Currently supported operations:

• Drawing lines
• Editing lines
• Drawing ovals
• Editing ovals
• Selecting graphical objects
• Reshaping selected objects
• Grouping objects into an object hierarchy
• Ungrouping objects from hierarchy
• Hand drawn curve eraser tool

File formats, saving, loading & exporting

• Export drawn image to SVG format
• Save and load drawing in a native format

Native format specification

Each graphical object is defined by a single row in a text file. Single row has a simple definition: <shapeID> <data>

• Line: @LINE x1 y1 x2 y2
• Oval: @OVAL hx hy vx vy (where h = horizontal hot-point and v = vertical hot-point)
• Composite: @COMP n (where n = number of children objects)

Pizza example above is therefore natively saved as such:
