Hey, sorry for the late 'comment'
When is SVG coming towards QooxDoo ? FF already does support V1.1 and IE
7.2 is supposed to handle SVG natively as well.
If we could get at least the API that would open the world to QooxDoo (
so to speak ).
Varol Okan :-)
Ps. there will come the time in the not too dostant future when I will
need this.

Subject: Re: [qooxdoo-devel] Custom Widgets
One thing you must understand about working with a browser is that there
is no 'canvas. Thus, there is no direct 'drawing' on the canvas. The
Walter Zorn library for drawing shapes and lines etc, uses tiny DIV's
for each 'point' of the line. He doesn't tell the canvas to draw a line
from point A to point B. So you can't compare creating controls in the
browser with creating controls for the Windows environment, it's just
not the same. Everything in qooxdoo is made up of standard HTML objects,
some have many objects. To see, after your page is rendered, use one of
the fine tools to see the DOM. This will show you what the final result
is of your few simple commands to draw a Table or Splitter or ???. There
are hundreds of HTML objects that get created on the page. So when you
are creating totally new controls, you have to think about how to
construct them using DOM objects. That is why I suggest creating new
controls by using other qooxdoo controls pieced together. This way all
the drawing issues are done for you.
And yes you are correct in assuming that most of the borders etc are
controlled by changing the style of the object.
Hope this helps,

Thanks to your help, but i think my problem is not so much in creating
new widgets which only uses some other qooxdoo components (i already did
this and it works fine)...
I want to create new widgets with new graphic effects, just like a
progress bar, but which are still compatible to the qooxdoo framework so
that they can be added to a window, pane or whatever.... For things like
that i think i need core graphic routines...
Probably i have to get a bit deeper into the source code of the qooxdoo
sources to see how they paint objects.
Maybe someone knows what they use to paint their objects? For examle the
separator from the split pane or the table from the date chooser
must be painted somehow within qooxdoo... or is all done with css ?
I think the best start to understand how the painting issues works is
probably the border class cause the most widgets are some kind of border
constructs ;-)
Or does someone have another idea?
I also will take a closer look to Walter Zorns graphic package
