Sorry but I do not buy your argument.
BlElement is in charge and it delegates it to BlShape.
This is a quite common pattern and this is more logical that the object
responsible for the shape drawing draw it in fact.
It was like that in Bloc before so I do not see why this is not possible
now.

All arbitrary shapes are being drawing in the same way and it is
enough to have only one method. Allowing shape to render itself would
lead to misunderstanding: bloc user would have to look into two places
(element and shape) to find out where drawing actually happens.

To me this is pre optimisation
I do not see why we cannot do
BlElement>>drawOnAthensCanvas: aCanvas
self shape drawOnAthensCanvas: aCanvas with: self
so far only localBounds from BlElement are used.
And to me this is really strange to have an object responsible for
the drawing not doing it.
It blurs the responsibility.

Hi,
Good question.
The reason we want to have the morph be responsible because
subclasses might decide to draw in a different way regardless
of the shape being used. This gives us the maximum freedom for
more specific blocs. Still, this is something to experiment
with once we have more complicated examples built with Bloc.
Cheers,
Doru

Hi Blockers
I do not really understand why drawOnAthensCanvas: is not
defined on BlShape
(especially when we see how many self space are defined in
this method.
And this is one of the few things I thought I understood
from bloc (grouping the rendering in a separate object).
drawOnAthensCanvas: aCanvas
"Actually render receiver on aCanvas in local bounds.
Override to customize.
aCanvas is an instance of AthensCanvas
aCanvas must not be nil"
