If your application zooms into vectors and has different magnification levels, I would not recommend caching. In all other situations caching works out fine for me.
Well for example , lets say you are rendering three building (vector) two of them are currently on stage ( user can see them ) the third building is offstage but is being rendered (users cannot see it ) . Its sometimes wise to just render things that you need on stage and not keep things off stage. *Fahim Akhter* |* Software Design Engineer | White Rabbit Games* | T: +92.321.5307672 | akhter.fa...@gmail.com | http://apps.facebook.com/feline-frenzy/ My profiles: [image: Facebook] <http://facebook.com/fahimakhter>[image: LinkedIn] <http://linkedin.com/in/fahimakhter>[image: Flickr]<http://flickr.com/photos/fahimakhter>[image: Twitter] <http://twitter.com/fahimakhter>[image: devianArt]<http://degothicangel.deviantart.com> Signature powered by WiseStamp <http://www.wisestamp.com/email-install> On Thu, Mar 4, 2010 at 12:17 AM, Andrew Sinning <and...@learningware.com>wrote: > Thanks Fahim.
