Manolo, could you imagine to do the same (line drawing only) work
with Direct2D as Ian suggested? I'm asking this because you're the
one who knows all that driver stuff best, and now that you have done
it with GDI+, can you estimate the effort necessary to do this?
No way. I don't know Direct2D and don't want to invest time in this MS-only API.
Please don't understand me wrong, it's just a thought. Since MS
seems to have given up on GDI+, wouldn't it be a step backwards if
we introduced GDI+ now? Maybe MS will drop support in a future
version or ... (who knows?).
MS has been maintaining back compatibility very seriously for many years. The exact opposite of what Apple does.
Well, while I'm writing this, another question came up: IIRC the
gleam scheme draws the color gradients as adjacent horizontal lines.
Wouldn't this be affected by the performance penalty as well?
The fact that only oblique lines and curves are drawn with GDI+ in my proposal, doesn't seem to make its way.
