Shapes examples

Real renders of the arrow shapes — each one is the same component with different property values, and the API payload below each preview reproduces it exactly.

CTA pointer

A wide green arrow aimed at an imagined "Start free trial" button on a promo banner.

API overrides for this example
{
  "star.path": "M 8 38 L 58 38 L 58 18 L 92 50 L 58 82 L 58 62 L 8 62 Z",
  "star.fillColor": "#10B981",
  "star.strokeColor": "transparent"
}

Next-step arrow on dark

A crisp white arrow marking the flow between two imagined steps in a dark tutorial graphic.

API overrides for this example
{
  "star.path": "M 8 38 L 58 38 L 58 18 L 92 50 L 58 82 L 58 62 L 8 62 Z",
  "star.fillColor": "#F8FAFC",
  "star.strokeColor": "transparent"
}

When to use the arrow style

  • CTA pointers in promo images
  • Flow and process diagrams
  • Direction cues in tutorial graphics

Use it dynamically via the API

Recolor per render with '<key>.fillColor' (or just '<key>'); strokeColor, strokeWidth and even the path are overridable.

Full API request with this variant's current values — the playground above sends only the properties you change
curl --location 'https://render.imejis.io/v1/{{YOUR_DESIGN_ID}}' \
--header 'dma-api-key: {{YOUR_API_KEY}}' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
    "star.path": "M 8 38 L 58 38 L 58 18 L 92 50 L 58 82 L 58 62 L 8 62 Z",
    "star.viewBox": "0 0 100 100",
    "star.fillColor": "#4F46E5",
    "star.strokeColor": "transparent",
    "star.strokeWidth": 0,
    "star.opacity": 1
}'

Only send the properties you want to change — everything else keeps its design value. See the API documentation for all languages.
