@minimy
nothing !

@miso
no, but i implemented "ScreenMouseVisible" to show or hide mouse pointer

Yeah, that's new.
Now you have to specify “#PB_Sprite_Transparent”
and the default drawing mode set the alpha to 0.
I don't know why Fred did that.
:shock:

I think you can file a bug report.
That will at least clarify the issue.

I read part of the thread.
My little tool:
https://www.purebasic.fr/english/viewtopic.php?p=631988#p631988
was initially created specifically for managing optional parameters.

With the optimization of the C code, I think my management of optional parameters remains optimal.
(if anyone wants to do ...

To test :

[EDITED 11/04/2025]
- Resident management (thanks to ChrisR)
- “IncludeFile” management (which may contain “ProcedureDLL”)
- Modification by Fred for multi-platform (among other things)
- bug fix for the procedureDLL in comment

See, it pays to yell!

As for image caching, it seems complicated to me, since animations can be interspersed between fixed layers.
But hey, you know your stuff...

@Booger
Splines are used to create smooth curves using control points.
I think these optimizations are completely negligible compared to the graphics functions.

@Justin
Indeed.
I modified the code in my first post.

Very impressive!
But it would require hardware acceleration.

I looked into it, and NanoVG (not to be confused with nanoSVG) implements the JavaScript canvas function set (including fonts).

If someone with the necessary knowledge could take on this ...

A function for drawing spline curves (closed or open)
This function is not included in the SVG standard, yet it is very simple to implement.
Structure Vector2:x.f:y.f:EndStructure

Procedure AddPathSpline(Array po.Vector2(1),Flags=0,roundness.f=0.5)
Protected n,i,close,coef.f=roundness/3 ...

svg (canvas) creates circles from Bézier curves
I'll try to make the splines for you tomorrow (it's late here in France)

Check out the AddPathCurve documentation.
Bezier curves are defined by four points.
The first point is the cursor position.
The other three are defined in AddPathCurve.
If you want the curves to be connected, just chain the AddPathCurve calls together
and end with the first point (or with closepath ...

wait a moment, I code you a sample

We will now need to adapt NanoSVG to PB to get the most out of SVG animations.

Any candidates?

Gold medal to drgolf, the first to find the context of the bug (I couldn't reproduce it)
Silver medal to PeDe
Nothing for Minimy, who didn't find the context

Corrected
