# frozen_string_literal: true

# The origin example already mentions that a new document already comes with
# a margin box whose bottom left corner is used as the origin for calculating
# coordinates.
#
# What has not been told is that there is one helper for "bypassing" the margin
# box: <code>canvas</code>. This method is a shortcut for creating a bounding
# box mapped to the absolute coordinates and evaluating the code inside it.
#
# The following snippet draws a circle on each of the four absolute corners.
