If it not slows things down a lot, then why not.
In discussions with Gary we both agreed that it would be good if
drawing primitives could be based on uniform model:
any drawing operation can be represented by a function(shape, arguments .. )
This update getting us closer to such representation.
The number of supported functions currently are quite few:
- draw with solid color
- draw with gradient
- draw with infinite form
- draw with finite form (also known as blitting)
but its difficult to make a clean implementation on top of graphic
primitives, which we currently have.
Most of primitives are optimized for single kind of shape - line ,
rectangle, ellipse. But none of them can use any shape as input.
