- This application replaces "NTK Shapes," an earlier
- version of "ShapeRus." Name change to be cute :-).
-
- This is version 0.9.5, it never seems quite ready
- for 1.0.0 ;-) .
-
- While developing NewtonGOLF(TM) I found the need to
- experiment with different foreground and background
- fill pattern combinations to see what "looked" good
- on a Newton MP screen. So I put together this
- utility program. If you find it useful, drop me a
- line via Email. If you have suggestions, I'll take
- them under advisement. If you what to see the code
- (it ain't pretty :-( ) drop me a line and let
- me know "what for" and I may be willing to send it
- to you.
-
- This utility allows a developer to see the
- visual appearance of the various NTK Drawing
- shape attribute choices & their combinations.
-
- - You can choose what NTK Shape primitive to draw.
- - You can choose its foreground fill pattern.
- - You can choose its foreground pen pattern.
- - You can choose its background fill pattern.
- - You can choose the mode of fg/bg pixel interaction.
- - You can define your own pattern and use it
- for fg fill, fg pen, or bg fill pattern. It
- also shows you the HEX pattern value needed
- for NTK. Tap in input grid to toggle on or off
- the 8x8 pixel location.
- - You can define your own polygon shape to replace
- the default polygon (pentagon) shape. Polygon
- input supports snap to grid option. Tap (not
- stroke) in input area to define polygon points.
- Close the last point to the first point when
- done.
-
- The result of all these options and choices
- appears in the canvas located above the menu
- buttons.
