HtmlCanvas shape need intersectsStroke and intersectsBounds, + and intersects (region). +2) SVG and VML are "live" scene graphs; eg. any state change to objects in the + scene automatically get rendered in next engine render pass. For canvas, it's + procedural, and current implementation requires application to call surface.render() + whenever scene needs to be updated. Plan is to do dirty region checking based + on bounding boxes (currently not properly computed), and track dirty areas anytime + state changes (invalidate) separate from render phase. + Add the following call where changes to the scene graph are complete and you want to + render: + + if (surface.render){surface.render();} + +4) Text/Text Paths - Text shape is implemented using DIV overlays. Many text styles are not + applied, and outline/fills are not possible. This is due to limitations in Canvas spec. + Firefox 3.0 has proprietary text functions that we could test for and use once FF3 is out. + No luck on Safari. +3) No Image skewing - Limitation of Canvas + +Known Bugs: +1) Matrix xformations (applied from root to shape leaf nodes) not quite right--but very close. + Canvas does not have a built in transformation function that allows skewing. Need to + track skew matrix with Shape, and perform other trans/rot/scale transformations without + using canvas transform functions. + + +------------------------------------------------------------------------------- +Installation instructions + +Grab the following from the Dojo SVN Repository: +http://svn.dojotoolkit.org/var/src/dojo/dojox/trunk/gfx.js +http://svn.dojotoolkit.org/var/src/dojo/dojox/trunk/gfx/* + +Install into the following directory structure: +/dojox/gfx/ + +...which should be at the same level as your Dojo checkout. +------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- cgit v1.2.3
