Hi All,

Just brainstorming right now.

Have you’ve seen the way the new windows tablets can set a mode and draw over 
the image on the screen? Kind of funny since I have bene planning a module 
functionally similar to work on the Mac. I need it for a training app and 
essentially a markup over an SVG image that can then be created, saved, 
restored or deleted.

I am in 4D v17 (cross-platform Mac and windows) and working in SVG.

I am wondering how I will design it.

Scenario one: I suppose I could just alter the SVG image and add the 
annoiations to it. That would work but I’d need to make sure that none fo the 
underlying image could be altered while it’s in this annotation kode.

Scenario two:  maybe there could be two SVG images with one aligned 
transparently on top pof the other. I guess it’s more like layers but I’m not 
sure we can do that in SVG, can we?

I will then build a series of objct that can be used for annotation:

rectangles, circles, line with/without arro heads; text etc.

Anyway, perhaps it’s as simpel as the first scenario I mentioned.

Anyone ever created anything similar?

Thanks,
John…
