The class drawn-pinboard-object
is a subclass of pinboard-object which is drawn by a supplied function, and is provided as a means of the user creating their own pinboard objects.
The
display-callback
is called with the output pane to draw on, the drawn-pinboard-object
itself, and the
x
,
y
,
width
and
height
of the object, and it is expected to redraw that section. The
display-callback
should not draw outside the object's bounds.
An alternative way of doing this is to create a subclass of pinboard-object and to provide a method for draw-pinboard-object.
(defun draw-an-ellipse
(output-pane self x y width height)
(let ((x-radius (floor width 2))
(y-radius (floor height 2)))
(gp:draw-ellipse output-pane
(+ x x-radius) (+ y y-radius)
x-radius y-radius
:foreground :red
:filled t)))
(capi:contain (make-instance
'capi:drawn-pinboard-object
:visible-min-width 200
:visible-min-height 100
:display-callback 'draw-an-ellipse))
