Hi everyone!
First of all i must tell you i am a complete noob at GUI programing so don't
insult me if my question is really stupid.
Reading the latest FLTK 1.3.0 manual (the one with 808 pages) i saw the
"Drawing Things in FLTK" chapter wich says that you must use some drawing
functions to draw, like fl_point,fl_loop and you can only use them "in certain
places".
The reason for wich i want to learn how to make GUI programs is to make a 2D
raster editor like Krita,GIMP or Photoshop(of course maximum 10% of what they
are).
"Drawing Things in FLTK" was very discouraging and i seems to me like FLTK
isn't very apropiate for what i need.All i really want is to draw pixels,lines
and text on some kind of canvas whit the mouse or a pc tablet.And of course
maybe be able to make some simple 2d games such as Tetris.But all this without
OpenGL or GLUT or anithing that has to do with 3D.
So my stupid question is: is FLTK suitable for these things?
I am really unexperienced at GUI programming and I defenitely don't want to
waste a year of my life learning something just to find out that it isn't
really good for me.FLTK is a great library,i'm not saying otherwise but wat I'm
asking is if it is good for 2d editors or 2d games, I know it's good for 3D,
but i need the 2D stuff too.
Thank for reading such a moronic post and thank for your replies!
