Don't let the demos confuse you. The demos were implemented to be
cross-platform in their own way, with its own widgets used by the demos.
The idea comes from the original C++ AGG framework, and only meant for
the demos.
You can use the AggPas API directly (most powerful) in Lazarus or fpGUI
or Console applications. There is also a TAgg2D Canvas class which gives
you a more Delphi-like Canvas API - a much smoother/easier introduction
to AggPas. The TAgg2D canvas is available for LCL and fpGUI.
But in the end I have to render it on the LCL canvas (a simple
TextRect), and I cannot do it faster than the LCL allows me. If I use a
timer[**] I'm constrained by the timer resolution (around 15ms in
windows with a minimum value of 10ms), if I use a thread+synchronize I'm
constrained by how often the application loop calls CheckSynchronize
(aside: if I move the mouse over the label, it goes faster, probably
because the application is managing more windows messages and calls
CheckSynchronize more often).
I also tried without Synchronize, but that's a no-no (apparently works
until you hit a timing issue and the application crashes or gets stuck).
[*] there are also multimedia timers, but I don't know if/how I can use
them, and they are windows specific anyway.
