border-radius

[omersahinesk]

First of all QuestPdf is awesome.
But i need to rounded borders.

Could you add border-radius styling for borders.

container
.Border(1)
.BorderRadius(30F);

You can use SkiaSharp To Implement such features

Thank you so much for sharing this feedback ❤️

I completely agree that QuestPDF should provide more ways to implement complex graphics. Rounded corners are a minimum.

Would you like to brainstorm the necessary features and their complexity with me?

• How could the API look?
• What do you need?
• What features are essential, and what are only not-really-useful corner cases?
• CSS is surely a source of inspiration. But do we need all the features?

A couple of things I would like to consider:

1. Option to set the border radius for all corners vs for each corner separately (different radiuses per corner)
2. How to handle border thickness with rounded corners, taking into account that borders may have various thicknesses already
3. How to handle various border colors?
4. Should we support gradients? If yes, how complex?

By the way, there is an alternative to using SkiaSharp. Instead of using SkCanvas, you can generate an SVG image. This way, you don't need to introduce additional dependency.
