Thanks, I copied your example and it seems it doesn't work ..
If I comment the code inside [paint-callback .. it also doesn't draw anything. In general I need to send 'messages' from 'outside' to the canvas object to visualize numerical experiment performed by separate function. I can implement experiment itself inside [pain-callback (lambda ... functions ) under definition of canvas, but it looks strange and clumsy. Sometimes I need just to run computations, but sometimes I need also to do visualization with animation. How could I achieve this?
