not necessarily. You can create a GraphicsContext from a wx.DC, you may be able to just add that step for drawing polycurves. > since you > can no longer draw to an in-memory buffer, but only a true wxClientDC). you can create a GraphicsContext from a wxMemeoryDC, so yes, you can draw to a buffer. I haev no idea what the impact on performance would be, but in general, GraphicsContext is slower than DC. > So, we need to look at the pros/cons of continuing to support these > legacy APIs going forward. yup. I know I never need a non-agg wx, but then I can see why folks running remote X severs would want it. I wonder if there is another way to speed that up with Agg -- can you compress the bitmap data to pass it to the Xserver? is that happening already? -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
