Hi All,

Making an APP that will render text and
possibly graphics on the screen in a WYSIWYG
view.

What's the best way to mimic a "paper" page
using RB - should I use one canvas per "page"
like this:

++++++++++++
+          +
+          +
+ Canvas 1 +
+          +
+          +
++++++++++++

++++++++++++
+          +
+          +
+ Canvas 2 +
+          +
+          +
++++++++++++

++++++++++++
+          +
+          +
+ Canvas 3 +
+          +
+          +
++++++++++++

..and put them on a base canvas that I
can scroll,

OR

should I use one canvas and just draw the
page borders etc. so it looks the same, but
it would use only one canvas?

The advantage (in my mind) of using the first
method is that it would make printing a lot
easier, but I'm wondering if there are any
speed / memory advantages to using the second
method...?

Anyone done something similar and come across
the same / similar scenarios?

I should say that the number of pages are
an unknown.

Thanks for your help,

Mark.
