* '''TheTom''': "If each widget/tool/whatever don't creates an own canvas, but instead just attaches itself to a given group infinite nesting of "canases" would be easily possible already with the current implementation. Maybe I should add means to define clipping regions to guarantee widgets can't draw outside their assigned regions, i.e. perform clipping only if there is actually a clipping region specified." {{Not done}} | * '''TheTom''': "If each widget/tool/whatever don't creates an own canvas, but instead just attaches itself to a given group infinite nesting of "canases" would be easily possible already with the current implementation.

=== Adressing modes: by-index, by-name (property mounting) === | |||
Referring to [[Remote Properties]] and the mentioned "mounting" support: | |||
For displaying one would just need to mount the canvas branch inside the remote EICAS FlightGear instance. If also interaction back to the main FG instance is needed it would also be needed to write to a remote tree. This can be handled the same if remote mounting also supports writing in all directions. So, yes with fill mounting support this would be possible | |||
One would just have to decide on which instance of FG the calculations of the ECIAS and other displays should take place, but with full mounting support this should be easily distributable as computing power is available. | |||
