[comp.windows.x] Looking for X display-list

gillett@rice-chex.ai.mit.edu (Walter E. Gillett) (05/14/91)

Hi, Folks
    I'm looking for a widget that'll support drawing and picking of graphical
objects.  We'd like to be able to group a set of primitives into an object
that can be picked, but we don't need full hierarchical grouping capabilities.

    We also need to be able to adjust the scaling and translation transform
and have the widget deal with the damage caused by removing an object from
the display list.

    We DON'T need 3d right now, but will in a few months.  However, we'd
prefer lean-and-mean 2d code to fat-and-sluggish 3d code.

    Does anyone know where to find such a beast?  If so, is it maintainable?
Is it (or are they) currently being maintained, or is the code "as is"?

			Thanks in advance for any replies (mail preferred)
