I would say that pyx has no stack and no transformable user space as such. But in pyx there are several ways to use transforms: * apply trafos to coordinates (my 1st example) * apply trafos to paths (my 2nd example) * apply trafos to canvases Inserting and transforming canvases is a very powerful and useful method in pyx (see where I translate the canvas in the end), just not for assembling a path where you want the joints to be path connections. I guess that was a long way of saying "Yes" :) Michael ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
