That was the reason for me to invite Andreas and Marcus to join our berlin-drawing list. it is fairly low traffic and has a rather specific target. Ok. And while we are at it, I have a couple of questions about ggi_visuals. I'm still thinking about the backing store which, in fact, would be a ggi_visual store. Since you seem to associate an event stack with each visual I'm wondering whether the way I want to use it is really appropriate or whether there are any alternatives. What I have in mind is really a GGI tool managing offscreen memory (ideally, video memory) which I can allocate chunks from for various high traffic targets. These could be used for video stuff as well as little animations such as pretty poiners etc. which are then just overlaied to still have a functional scene graph. Could any GGI guru comment on this idea ? Jon - could you please forward this again since I'm sure the mail will bounce back from ggi-develop.
