Hi All, Thanks for the advice from everyone. I've done a little bit of research, but I m not sure the idea of rendering the boxes with numbering is correct or not. Is it true that I can draw on a canvas? I m reading this tutorial http://www.anddev.org/the_pizza_timer_-_threading-drawing_on_canvas-t126.html
It seems like after I draw a box, I can still draw on the same place, overlapping it. So I can do something like "drawing" the numbers on top of the boxes right? In face I'm not doing a crossword. It looks similar to crossword but it is called CodeCracker instead. I did a google on "CodeCracker" but the result it returns are mostly something else. Here are a few link on the "CodeCracker" I m saying: http://www.codecracker.co.nz/samples/samples.htm http://www.puzzco.com/knight%20features/interactive/samples/Interactive%20Samples/code-cracker.htm http://www.thepuzzlecompany.co.nz/samples/Interactive%20Samples/code-cracker%20extra.htm Regards Kwan On Mon, Sep 28, 2009 at 2:00 PM, Seth Mould <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi Kwan, > > I have a project on SourceForge called xW which seeks to establish a > standard XML format for word puzzles, so you might want to look at > that for your input.
