Example

<!--- This example shows how to draw a square bisected by  
    a diagonal line. ---> 
<!--- Use the ImageNew function to create a 100x100-pixel image. ---> 
<cfset myImage=ImageNew("",100,100)> 
<!--- Turn on antialiasing to improve image quality. ---> 
<cfset ImageSetAntialiasing(myImage,"on")> 
<!--- Draw a diagonal line that bisects the square. ---> 
<cfset ImageDrawLine(myImage,0,0,100,100)> 
<!--- Display the image in a browser. ---> 
<cfimage source="#myImage#" action="writeToBrowser">
