I'm not sure about that, I guess you could make it work somehow but it would be very limited. Like you said, just pointer+length, as converting the memory to ruby and back would hit the same bottleneck

Hello all,

How about harddrive, sd card, and thumb drive access!

Later then, BobF.....

What had you got in mind Bob? You can already load and save stuff to/from any drive on the PC.

Cheers

Hello Spogg,

Do you have an example? Funny as long as I have been using Flowstone there seems to still be things I have missed.
But I see that as a good thing, always more to learn.

Thanks, BobF.....

Hey Bob,

saving is done through the various save-Prims (there are prims for saving bitmaps, wavefiles, text, etc.). Access to a location on a storing device is done via the File Dialog Prim. And loading again is done via prims.

Many thanks tulamide,

Sometimes I guess I just wake up and leave my brain on the pillow.

Hi all, It would be well to implement a new GUI module: Blur (Diffumination). This would be applied in bitmaps or If possible in real-time view.

For GUI control. For example, one could point the user to the current active area by blurring the rest. But a blur effect can't be realized with GDI+, it would need the help of a graphics card's shader.

I wanted it to use it in pop-ups like About or similar.
