Hello
How can we save the result of drawing by EditorFactory on canvas as svg?

Hello
How can we save the result of drawing by EditorFactory on canvas as svg?

There is no module function for this.
However, PureBasic has the command SvgVectorOutput(), which you can use in the StartVectorDrawing() function, instead of the CanvasVectorOutput().

In principle, there is only one call of StartVectorDrawing() in the EditorFactory-include, it's in the private module function: ObjectDrawing(), you can search for it in the source code. So it should be possible to add an additional parameter to trigger an output to a SVG file.
However, I never tried the SvgVectorOutput() command, I'm not sure if it has the same functionality for drawings as CanvasVectorOutput().

I can try it on weekend, or you can try it yourself.

@STARGÅTE : Thanks for your help.
Another question : How do I create a snap to grid mode to move objects?

With the module function SetObjectMovementStep() and SetObjectResizeStep() you can define a grid snapping for movements and resizing. You can define it by default (for new objects), for all objects, or a specific object.
For example, the call of EditorFactory::SetObjectMovementStep(#Object_Default, 10, 10) defines a 10-px-grid for all new objects.

Hello again,
How to enable z-order feature in this module? I want an object to be placed above other objects when I click on it.

Of course, if possible, please add the save to svg function.

Hello again,

Please take a look in Example04_Object-order.pb from the download.
SetObjectLayer() can be used to change the z-order and with CanvasObjectsEvent() you can detect a click.

Of course, if possible, please add the save to svg function.

I will try it on weekend, as I said.

I quickly checked the option to save the canvas output as a SVG.
Indeed, it is relatively easy to add this feature.
However, the saved SVG image is simplified and not complete:
- In my test, text (with fonts) was not exported.
- Color gradient areas were just solid color.
If both is not relevant to you, I can provide you with a procedure.

Thanks for following up on my request.
I am building a visual calendar designer using your powerful EditorFactory - Module and of course, with the copilot laborious consultations
Your designer's output is a vector file for graphic designers.

The font problem seems to be a bug (SvgVectorOutput) and needs to be fixed. I mentioned it in the following thread.
viewtopic.php?t=87523
For other cases, it doesn't matter at all, just draw the same simple shape, it's great.

I'm posting again because I'm in a bit of a hurry.
Now, if I use svgVectorOutput instead of canvasVectoroutput in the objectdrawing function, will there be any problems with the drawing???

I will upload an experimental version for you in a few hours and send you a PN.
