I am trying to animate a rectangle within an svgCanvas. To speed up things i want to do it with gvt. As i first step i just modified the following code
oAnimObject.oFgElm.setAttribute( .... ); with // Getting the graphics node corresponding to svg element GraphicsNode gn = svgCanvas.getUpdateManager().getBridgeContext(). getGraphicsNode(oAnimObject.oFgElm); AffineTransform theTransform = gn.getGlobalTransform(); Rectangle2D theBounds = gn.getTransformedBounds(theTransform); Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D)svgCanvas.getGraphics(); g2d.translate(theBounds.getX(), theBounds.getY()); g2d.setColor(Color.green); gn.paint(g2d); The behavior i get is that instead of one rectangle i get two rectangles drawn on the canvas. My guess is that one of these is the original rectangle (part of the svg file) and second one (drawn at an offset) is the one drawn by the gn.paint(g2d). I would want both of these to overlap. My svgcanvas state is set to dynamic and the above piece of code comes inside the update managers thread. I am using jsvgcanvas. What i want to know is 1. How to do transformation in the right way? What things to consider when choosing which transformation method call? 2. Is there a way i can set my svgcanvas state to static and still be able to view changes made in gvt? If i try it myself, the canvas does update itself. Do i have to call repaint or something like that. How? 3. Is the graphics object specific to a svgcanvas component. Cann't i get a graphics object which i can use directly with a shape without any translation or transformation? 4. Graphics2D is awt based while svgcanvas is a swing component. Mixing both of these causes flickering while animating. Isn't there any swing based mechanism of handling changes to GVT? I have not got a chance to work with batik's transformations or with GVT previously. So please share any links i can use to learn about these.
