so moving a layer would be really fast. I've also done some work in implementing the 'static' property from SVG 1.2 which would allow you to indicate that the rendering engine should cache each layer in the document as a raster.
that "static" or "cache" property would be potentially useful for my projects as well! I also have to move complex groups (layers) in my mapping projects. My use case would be to move a group using the transform attribute where I know that the content does not change while moving (dragging) it. During dragging it could stay as a cached bitmap. Would that be possible with that attribute? How would I specify that attribute? Like this? <g transform="translate(56,0)"> <!-- that transform is changed while dragging the mouse --> <g static="true"> <!-- this group content is not changing --> </g> </g> or would I specify the static attribute in the outer group and am still able to change the transform attribute while dragging the mouse? How would you interpret the usage of this attribute?
