Re: Updating vcl EMF+ Renderer without using the cppcanvas metafile renderer
Hi, Am 12.05.2016 um 08:27 schrieb Aptitude Testing Team: To fix this, I believe that it should be possible to copy cppcanvas/source/mtrenderer/emfplus.cxx into vcl/source/filter/wmf and adapt it to use "class WinMtfOutput" I'd move it instead of copying. WinMtfOutput as-is won't cut it, you need to extend it to cover more modern graphic operations. Caveat emptor, that might require extensions to the internal StarView metafile format then with some ripple-effects. Another (IMO better) option is to convert it into a drawinglayer primitive filter. Armin on Cc for further details on that topic. Thinking about it. I believe the best approach will be to use svgio as a framework (I will call it wmfio). Since svg (I believe) is the newest. Then in 4 stages, slowly port the WMF/EMF/EMF+ code 1) WMF 2) EMF 3) EMF+ 4) Strip out the old code (If any remnants exist). I will make a start, and see where it takes me. Fantastic, long needed thing to start with - ping if you have questions!
