Study Notes
Vector Graphics Overview
- Vector graphics consist of images stored as a list of attributes.
- Unique characteristics: images are defined by geometric shapes rather than pixels.
Key Vocabulary
- Vector graphic: an image format based on mathematical equations.
- Attribute: defining characteristics of an object, such as size and color.
- Object: the shapes that make up a vector graphic.
- Layer: a method to manage the stacking of objects to create depth.
- Scalable: ability to resize an image without losing quality.
Structure of Vector Graphics
- Images are formed by objects, which include attributes such as:
- Height and width
- X and Y coordinates for positioning
- Outline and fill color
- Line width
- The shape is represented by points connected by lines, exemplified by the corner coordinates of a triangle.
Editing Vector Graphics
- Objects can be edited independently, allowing for adjustments like resizing and color changes.
- Features:
- Objects can be clicked and dragged to resize.
- Formatting options provide capabilities for altering color and line attributes.
- Layering allows combination of objects for more intricate designs.
Advantages of Vector Graphics
- Scalable without loss of quality, making them ideal for various sizes.
- Generally small file sizes due to memory-efficient storage from attributes.
Common Vector Graphic Formats
- .eps: Encapsulated PostScript File.
- .svg: Scalable Vector Graphics File.
Creating Vector Graphics
- Vector-style graphics can be created using:
- 'Shapes' tool in Word's 'Insert' tab.
- 'Drawing' tools in Google Docs.
Activities and Practice
- Activities include written exercises and worksheets focusing on vector graphics concepts.
Critical Thinking
- Consider scenarios where vector graphics are preferable over bitmap images for improved clarity and scalability.
Assessment Criteria
- Grade 1-3: Identify what defines an image made up of objects.
- Grade 4-7: Explain how the shape of an object is stored in vector graphics.
- Grade 8-9: Name a type of vector graphic file and discuss scalability.
Digital Wellbeing
- Understanding the concept of digital wellbeing and the Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) used by the school.
