 /* pChart library inclusions */
 include("class/pData.class.php");
 include("class/pDraw.class.php");
 include("class/pSpring.class&.phpquot;);
 include("class/pImage.class");

 /* Create the pChart object */
 $myPicture = new pImage(300,300);

 /* Create the background */
 $myPicture->drawGradientArea(0,0,300,300,DIRECTION_HORIZONTAL,array("StartR"=>217,"StartG"=>250,"StartB"=>116,"EndR"=>181,"EndG"=>209,"EndB"=>27,"Alpha"=>100));
 $myPicture->drawGradientArea(0,0,300,20,DIRECTION_VERTICAL,array("StartR"=>0,"StartG"=>0,"StartB"=>0,"EndR"=>50,"EndG"=>50,"EndB"=>50,"Alpha"=>100));
 $myPicture->drawRectangle(0,0,299,299,array("R"=>0,"G"=>0,"B"=>0));
 $myPicture->setFontProperties(array("FontName"=>"fonts/Silkscreen.ttf","FontSize"=>6));
 $myPicture->drawText(10,13,"pSpring - Draw spring charts",array("R"=>255,"G"=>255,"B"=>255));


 /* Define the charting area & stuff */
 $myPicture->setGraphArea(20,20,280,280);
 $myPicture->setFontProperties(array("FontName"=>"fonts/Forgotte.ttf","FontSize"=>9,"R"=>80,"G"=>80,"B"=>80));
 $myPicture->setShadow(TRUE,array("X"=>2,"Y"=>2,"R"=>0,"G"=>0,"B"=>0,"Alpha"=>10));

 /* Create the pSpring object */
 $SpringChart = new pSpring();

 /* Define the default free zone size */
 $SpringChart->setNodeDefaults(array("FreeZone"=>100));

 /* Create some nodes & relations */
 $SpringChart->addNode(0,array("Shape"=>NODE_SHAPE_TRIANGLE,"FreeZone"=>60,"Size"=>20,"NodeType"=>NODE_TYPE_CENTRAL));
 $SpringChart->addNode(1,array("Connections"=>"0"));
 $SpringChart->addNode(2,array("Connections"=>"0"));
 $SpringChart->addNode(3,array("Connections"=>"2"));

 /* Define the nodes color */
 $SpringChart->setNodesColor(0,array("R"=>215,"G"=>163,"B"=>121,"BorderR"=>166,"BorderG"=>115,"BorderB"=>74));
 $SpringChart->setNodesColor(array(1,2,3),array("R"=>150,"G"=>215,"B"=>121,"Surrounding"=>-30));

 /* Customize some relations */
 $SpringChart->linkProperties(0,1,array("Name"=>"Synchronous","R"=>255,"G"=>0,"B"=>0));
 $SpringChart->linkProperties(0,2,array("Name"=>"Asynchronous","R"=>255,"G"=>0,"B"=>0,"Ticks"=>2));
 $SpringChart->linkProperties(3,2,array("Name"=>"Mixed","Ticks"=>4));

 /* Render the spring chart */
 $Result = $SpringChart->drawSpring($myPicture);
 print_r($Result);

 /* Render the picture */
 $myPicture->Render("drawspring4.png");
