Sure, no problem. In the other thread i posted an example for a game, that writes directly to a Window DC.
Writinig to a printer DC should be no problem.

QuoteThese could be useful for an XPRINT implementation.

XPRINT is proprietary, what about writing to a printer DC

Good to hear that Thanxx Charles

Thanxx a lot  Charles

That's a beauty mate 

Excellent job that you had done with no equals

We have some classical graphics adapted to OpenGl, primarily for making graphs and diagrams:

examples/OpenGl/DataGraphs/

move
rotate
scale
color
line
thickness
point
pointsize
fan
print
etc.

These could be useful for an XPRINT implementation.

Yes, o2 is in the beta phase, currently 0.2.7. This means minimal changes to keywords and syntax, along with self-compiling, and some extended capabilities and bug-fixes.

The main changes have been:

• Equates default to 32bits in 64bit system
• Support for UTF-16 source code.
• Ability to pass and return UDTs by value
• Adapt Operator system to support variants as well as other UDT types
• Removal of automatic scoping inside procedures
• Built-in RES file linkage

 Hello Patrice. All that can be done. And portability will be no issue, you will later see what i mean.

Quotehave you tried converting PB GRAPHICS statements and OPENGL stuff

PB's 24-bit GRAPHIC is totaly obsolete, 32-bit is a mandatory.
About OpenGL, the latest drivers and shader (using C syntax) are meant to work in 64-bit only (BTW, we added shadertoy animations in OR).
GLSL also requires the learning of C...

Learning the low level API rather than using the GRAPHIC proprietary syntax, would help for the sake of code portability

No, but you will be able to.

PluriBASIC already supports all their syntaxes, but the stock code is missing. Anybody will be able to code it in and even share.

XPRINT syntax is supported as well. But the internal code is also missing. I think at some point it will be an interesting project
for everyone else.

The idea is that you (at some point) will be able to use any IDE you want, Firefly, WinFBE,
JK's IDE, PB's ide, one of Chris' ones... even PB forms, with no special modifications by their
authors.

The IDE i am using has very powerful features, for example it allows to monitor variables,
the Logcat (Android), the internal working of the guts (compilation processes for all targets),
edit core functions, sort tabs, resie panels... it even has some special mechanics to interact
with the source code (clicking keywords).

If you want you can use any other IDE though, even one that supports project structures.

Of course, you will need to compile and link resources manually if you do that. No problem
though, PluriBASIC generates automatically an RC file for you to compile and link in case you
want to handle it yourself.
