Hi, Can anyone point me in the direction of documentation on
Gnome::Canvas and it’s relatives i.e. CanvasPathDef, CanvasPixbuf etc
I can’t find anything about it.

Thanks, Mike

gnome canvas - Google Search

Thanks for your help Paul, but if you add the word ‘Ruby’ to your search
pattern it turns up only 2 hits. Neither of them any use.
I want to draw several disjointed lines on a Gnome::Canvas and can’t
seem to find any method of doing this. I ‘think’ that
‘Gnome::CanvasBpath’ might be the thing I need but I’m not sure.
Documentation for this in Ruby seems non-existent.
Cheers, Mike

Okay, fair enough. When I write Qt interface code I don’t need to worry
that
it’s for Ruby, because the calls and properties are the same whether the
calling code is C++ or Ruby, my two most likely candidate languages.

This made me think the generic Gnome Canvas literature would suffice. On
the
other hand, I haven’t tried to use it, primarily because there are much
better documented GUI components available.

I am sure you have excellent reasons for going with Gnome Canvas.
