If not, how difficult is > something like this to implement? ok - can of worms. basically this comes under "clipping" from my point of view. right now the only clip object supported is rectangles. what you want is gradient clip objects and/or image clip objects too. i basically have avoided this due to complexity/speed issues as such and unfortunately at this stage it wont happen any time soon as i'm focusing on e17 itself. you will find this in the TODO list for evas, as well as filter objects (add a filter api and then u can add one object to a filter object and where they intersect will have a filter applied - like gaussian blur or something...) :) -- ------------- Codito, ergo sum - "I code, therefore I am" -------------- The Rasterman (Carsten Haitzler) [EMAIL PROTECTED] 裸好多 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tokyo, Japan (東京 日本) ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
