And a "dedicated app" to create the drawing content is exactly the killer feature of Flash. That's what I want to do with "use Inkscape and slap the SVG into the canvas; then write some simple code to interact with it". People in the Real World need a very simple way to do interactive displays (be it with graphics or just text widgets). A few years ago in Brazil I had a gentleman ask me, "why is GTK+ and Glade so complicated? I'm using a database that lets me write GUIs by typing Enter Name [____________________] (write-your-GUI-though-ASCII-art), and it will then let me name the field, define its type, etc.". People *need* that level of simplicity. Draw something, BANG - it's there. You just write some glue code to the rest of your app. Federico _______________________________________________ gtk-devel-list mailing list gtk-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list
