Thanks Michael,
I am debating either starting from scratch or trying to convert. As alot of
the original code was based heavily on GDI+ api calls, I am strongly leaning
towards a total rewrite and using the original code as scratch/prototype
code.
I think this would be best. GDI+ is not portable at all.
I am going to rely heavily upon existing functionality within Lazarus/FPC so,
where is the best place to start looking for the level of graphical
ability/support and UI code?
In the sources, I expect :-)
Honestly: No idea. All graphical stuff descends from TFPCustomCanvas in the FCL.
(fcl/image directory)
I will also need some sort of print functionality - where can I find a primer
on the state of printing support?
There are 1 or 2 packages that provide printing support.
Sorry to hit you with all these questions but I have found the wiki to be
less than helpful in many ways.
I don't like WIKI's in the first place, because they are too unorganized...
But probably there is someone on the list with more knowledge than I have...
Michael.
