> 5) On the webpage about objects one passage mentioned that "sub-objects" don't get cloned- what does that mean? Reading that I would expect that all objects within an object aren't available when I create an object on the basis of that object. But I seem to be able to use it anyway. Maybe I am getting something wrong here ?
>> Outer: make object! [ [ m: 123 [ Inner: make object! [ [ m: 456 [ ] [ ] >> Outer/Inner/m == 456 >> Another: make Outer [ [ m: "Another!" [ ] >> Another/m == "Another!" >> Another/Inner/m == 456 >> Another/Inner/m: "Another's Inner!" == "Another's Inner!" >> Outer/Inner/m == "Another's Inner!" Can you see that there's only one object inside the objects refered to by 'Outer and 'Another? It's like copying pointers in C, with out copying the C string. > 7) Trying to find a solution to the problem above I looked around the REBOL webpages and searched for a possibility to create threads - there doesn't seem to be anything like that - how is "parallel processing" achieved in REBOL ? Cooperative multi-tasking. There is only the one thread in Rebol. > I read it would be possible to create images on the fly and work with these then - is it possible to store an entire (view) layout within such an image ? Yes. There's an example or two of this on the Rebol site. > 13) I didn't see any designated function to set pixels at certain coordinates in a layout- my workaround was using the line word - with 1 width/height. How is this really done ? There is a pixel dialect for Rebol; but it seems to be concealed to casual visitors. :-/ I'm sure that some one with more VID experience will be able to answer more of these questions.
