<p>This example shows how to draw shapes and line segments with the `Path` shape.</p>

<h2>HTML</h2>
```
<div id="mygraphiccontainer"></div>
```

<h2>CSS</h2>
```
#mygraphiccontainer {
    position: relative;
    width: 700px;
    height:300px;
}
```

<h2>Javascript</h2>
<p>Create a `Graphic` instance.</p>
```
    var mygraphic = new Y.Graphic({render:"#mygraphiccontainer"});
```

<p>Create two path elements for end shapes. Give each a red fill and a black stroke.</p>

```
var diamond1 = mygraphic.addShape({
        type: "path",
        stroke: {
            weight: 1,
            color: "#000"
        },
        fill: {
            color: "#f00"
        }
    });

var diamond2 = mygraphic.addShape({
        type: "path",
        stroke: {
            weight: 1,
            color: "#000"
        },
        fill: {
            color: "#f00"
        }
    });
```
<p>Create a path for the connecting segment. Give it a black dashed stroke and no fill. The `dashstyle` property of the stroke attribute allows for the creation of a dashed stroke. The first value is 
the length of the dash and the second value is the gap space between dashes.</p>
```
var connector = mygraphic.addShape({
        type: "path",
        stroke: {
            weight: 1,
            color: "#000",
            opacity: 1,
            dashstyle: [3, 4]
        }
    });
```
<p>Draw the first diamond.</p>

```
diamond1.moveTo(60, 60);
diamond1.lineTo(80, 40);
diamond1.lineTo(100, 60);
diamond1.lineTo(80, 80);
diamond1.lineTo(60, 60);
diamond1.end();
```
<p>Draw the connector segment.</p>
```
connector.moveTo(100, 60);
connector.lineTo(450, 220);
connector.end();
```

<p>Draw the second diamond.</p>
```
diamond2.moveTo(450, 220);
diamond2.lineTo(470, 200);
diamond2.lineTo(490, 220);
diamond2.lineTo(470, 240);
diamond2.lineTo(450, 220);
diamond2.end();
```
