Interface used by the framework mainly for calculating the visible path of an edge.
Inheritance Hierarchy
IEdgePathCropper
Remarks
This interface is queried through the lookup of IPort instances to calculate the visible portion of an edge path.
It is rarely needed to implement this interface. Custom styles based on EdgeStyleBase<TVisual> should call cropPath to crop the edge path. For custom cropping it is sufficient in most cases to use a configured EdgePathCropper instance.

Methods
Crops the provided path at one end of an edge.
Parameters
options - Object
A map of options to pass to the method.
A map of options to pass to the method.
- edge - IEdge
- The edge whose path is to be cropped.
- atSource - boolean
- Whether to crop the source or target side of the path.
- arrow - IArrow
- The arrow that is used at the end of the edge.
- path - GeneralPath
- The path to crop.
Returns
- ↪GeneralPath
- The cropped path. This can be either the same instance of the given path or a newly created instance.
Constants
A singleton that implements the same cropping behavior as EdgePathCropper and is immutable.
Remarks
It crops an edge's path at the node bounds of the source or target side with respect to the given arrow.
Note that this instance cannot be cast to the EdgePathCropper type.
