If you want to go ahead and make use of these draw commands directly, you can use the following:
| Stroke function | Fill function | Notes |
| NkStrokeLine() | Draw a single line segment in the specified color. | |
| NkStrokeCurve() | Draw a single curve segment in the specified color. | |
| NkStrokeRect() |
NkFillRect(), NkFillRectMultiColor() |
Draw a rectangle (or square) outline, or solid rectangle in the specified color(s). To draw an outlined, filled rectangle, call NkFillRect() and then NkStrokeRect() using the same coordinates. NkFillRectMultiColor() is a quick way to draw gradients in a rectangle. |
| NkStrokeCircle() | NkFillCircle() | Draw a circle (or ellipse) outline or fill in the specified color. |
| NkStrokeArc() | NkFillArc() | Outline, or fill, an arc around a central point in the specified color. |
| NkStrokeTriangle() | NkFillTriangle() | Draw a triangle outline or a solid triangle in the specified color. |
| NkStrokePolyline() | Draw a series of line segments in the specified color. | |
| NkStrokePolygon() | NkFillPolygon() | Outline or fill a shape with a list of points defining its boundary. |
| NkDrawImage() | Draw an image into a specified rectangle and background color. | |
| NkDrawText() | Draw a text string with the specified background and foreground colors. |
Now that we've explored all of the widgets and drawing capabilities, we could jump right in to building a full application. However, Nuklear has one other cool feature that we should look at: the ability to change the interface design using skinning.
