* '''TheTom''': "vertical projection seems not too complicated as its basically just calculating segment lenghts on a sphere, or maybe just direct distance calculations. I think the error in comparison to the real sphere can be neglected while using typical distances (eg. at a distance of 300 miles the error is about 2.8 miles, which is ~0.9%)." | * '''TheTom''': "vertical projection seems not too complicated as its basically just calculating segment lenghts on a sphere, or maybe just direct distance calculations.

* '''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." | * '''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.

* '''Hooray''': "yes, sounds like the best and most powerful design to me, because everything would still be a canvas, but nesting/recursion would be supported, i.e. "piping" the output from one canvas into another canvas group, so that canvases can be reused and nested" | |||
