| 26 | |
|---|
| 27 | Currently, 5 shapes are supported: line, single arrow line, double arrow line, |
|---|
| 28 | underline text and text. The first 3 shapes can have optinal text associated. |
|---|
| 29 | |
|---|
| 30 | Shapes can be added, deleted, moved and modified. All of these operations can |
|---|
| 31 | be undo-ed or redo-ed. |
|---|
| 32 | |
|---|
| 33 | TODO: |
|---|
| 34 | * provide UI to change various properties on shapes (fill, stroke, text) and |
|---|
| 35 | allow changing of background image |
|---|
| 36 | * serialize/unserialize in dojox.gfx to svg (and maybe vml as well?) (or another |
|---|
| 37 | simplier format? such as a json based one, which is easier to parse, and then |
|---|
| 38 | write a convertor to convert the json format to svg or any other format?) |
|---|
| 39 | * Move mousedown/up/move to each shape (to prepare for the following) |
|---|
| 40 | * Add shapes for other primitive shapes (needs to decide which primitive |
|---|
| 41 | dojox.gfx.shapes are useful), and add in support for user to group any |
|---|
| 42 | shapes/groups to form a single "compound shape" (need to add support to set |
|---|
| 43 | fill/stroke properties on the entire compound shape, which shallpropagate to |
|---|
| 44 | all children shapes) |
