Greetings. I don't have a specific technical question, but rather a general "strategy" question.
I want to build some custom Swing components for a digital audio app I am writing. The components will be dials, sliders, buttons, and whatnot as on the front of a mixer or amplifier. I launched into doing the drawing with Java 2D calls directly in my components. The tedium of this very high, and the flexibility is a bit low. Is it worth considering using, say Adobe Illustrator (which I already own) to create SVG, and then use batik to handle component graphics? The components will require some animation, such as dials that turn, sliders that slide, etc. I have looked briefly at the archives, and also at the JSVGCanvas sample code. No doubt the answer would be obvious if I really learned SVG and batik better, but I am hoping for some feedback on whether the approach makes sense before investing all the time it takes to master another XML app plus another complex Java API. Thanks for whatever help you can give me, you beautiful people you ;-) - Dave P. - --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
