Well in this case more like “Huh I guess I should finish that damned thing up” \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I watched the recent keynote there was one bit that made me think exactly that. It was the point where geoff was showing off drawing from a XojoScript.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’d tinkered with something on and off for a while – and its been more off lately than on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But when I saw that I thought “Gee. I really should finish demo that up.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So I did. And here you are. A way to draw from XojoScript to a graphics that resides in Xojo code. In the demo it comes from the paint event of a canvas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Doesn’t currently support any additional clipping of the graphics but I’ll see what I can do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There’s no support for Pictures since pictures do not exist in XojoScript. That might also be possible to do without too much effort but I dont have any need for it at the moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ONE thing to remember with XojoScript is it is all very CLASSIC API 1.0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So extension methods like String.Mid, String.len etc dont exist (I could add those too but …)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a demo.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have fun with it. Let me know what you think.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
