I am using Canvas.. I can not use SVG... well not now at least, unless i revamp a whole lot of code. Filling is easy using canvas at the time you want to draw, but filling later..after it has been drawn requires pixel manipulation, for which I am using the flood fill algorithm.
I guess I can use window.setTimeout but it will just avoid that script dialog to pop-up, but the whole performance issue still exists. I am going to try it and see what performance stats I get. - Preet On 5/7/07, Matthew Wilson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
