Is there a way to append an image object (a box for example) to a face that
has already been displayed. I'm looking to get simple highlight
functionality in an app in which a string is scanned for in a series of text
faces.
I've been able to highlight the search word in each face but if I click in
any of the text faces the face looses the highlight effect sort of like
loosing focus on normal highlighting.
I would like the highlight to remain until no longer needed
What I got working:
rebol []
pad: 20x30
window: layout [
bx: box red 0x0
panel: panel [
text 400 "Here is a simple example how to use DRAW dialect
for into alpha channel of the image. I think with the function make-alpha
(bellow in the example) you can draw almost any kind of transparent shape
though it is not the fastest method....IMO the possibility to use DRAW pens
for alpha channel should be done at Rebol's native level"
