Today saw the implementation of a colour cycling routine to pulse my new vector cursors; this took a little longer than expected due to the quirky way in which Blitz handles Data statements. Ok, it's actually perfectly fine, but it's a little different to Commodore BASIC so I'm sticking with my quirky statement :)
The cursors looked so good, I actually tweaked my Brush Grab cursors and converted them to vectors, which now means that they too can have pulsing colour (and makes a big difference to the Editor's look and feel).
Next, I plucked a task from my To Do list which had been negelected for far too long, that of allowing the user to change both the X and Y dimensions of the Grid (previously, X and Y were locked). This entailed creating a custom pop-up window, but the added flexibility is well worth the effort.
The final task involved an amendment to the Brush plotting routine, but with the time approaching midnight, I thought better of delving into one of the Editor's more complex routines and reserved it a spot on tomorrow's schedule. ;)
