    this is an abstract superclass for all kinds of graphic drawables -

    both windows and printed pages (i.e. printers) are inheriting from

    this class (even drawables not at all associated with any device would do so).

    Drawing is done in paint/bgPaint colors, which can be true colors (i.e.

    directly supported by the underlying hardware) or simulated colors

    (i.e. dithered colors or images).

    The paint/bgPaint instance variables are set to the logical colors,

    device specific drawable may like to keep actual colors in addition.

    The transformation instance variable is typically nil, for a 1-to-1

    coordinate mapping (i.e. x/y coordinates are pixels in the drawable).

    If nonNil, the transformation must be an  instance of WindowingTransformation

    and offers both a scale-factor and a translation.

    Also, drawing in metric- or inch-units can be done using transformations.

    (see instance creation methods of WindowingTransformation, and examples

     in 'doc/coding').

    All drawing is defined upon a few basic drawing methods, which must be 

    implemented by subclasses (some subclasses also redefine the others for

    more performance)

    [Instance variables:]

	paint           <Color>         the paint used for drawing

	bgPaint         <Color>         the background used for drawing texts and bitmaps

	function        <Symbol>        the drawing function (i.e. #copy, #or, #xor ...)

					- not all Drawables support every function

					(i.e. paper only allows #copy)

	font            <Font>          the current font to be used for drawing

	lineStyle       <Symbol>        the lineStyle (i.e. #solid, #dashed, #doubleDashed)

	lineWidth       <SmallInteger>  the lineWidth (device dependent, usually pixels)

	joinStyle       <Symbol>        the style in which lines (in polygons)

					are joined (i.e. #miter, #bevel, #round)

	capStyle        <Symbol>        the style in which the last point of a line is drawn

					(i.e. #notLast, #butt, #round, #projecting)

	mask            <Form>          a mask used for drawing

					- not all Drawables support it

	maskOrigin      <Point>         the origin of the mask relative to

					the drawables origin

	transformation

			<WindowingTransformation>

					controls scale & translation of nonNil

	clipRect        <Rectangle>     a clip rectangle (device dep. usually pixels or inches)

					or nil.

	White           <Color>         cached white color - its needed so often

	Black           <Color>         cached black color - its needed so often

    drawing uses a paint color (which may be a dithered one) which is

    used like a `pen'. 

    A few drawing operations (opaqueForm and opaqueString drawing)

    use two colors, the paint and a backgroundPaint. For example,

    normal string drawing (#displayString:...) only draws the fonts

    on-pixels in the current paint, leaving off-pixels unchanged.

    In contrast, #drawOpaqueString:.. also changes these to the bgPaint color.

    The bgPaint can be changed with #backgroundPaint: or #paint:on: (which modifies both).

    lets try it in a view:

									[exBegin]

	|v|

	v := View new.

	v openAndWait.

	v paint:(Color red).

	v displayString:'hello' x:10 y:50

									[exEnd]

    the same using opaque drawing:

									[exBegin]

	|v|

	v := View new.

	v openAndWait.

	v paint:(Color red) on:(Color yellow).

	v displayOpaqueString:'hello' x:10 y:50

									[exEnd]

    Lines are drawn using the paint color (if solid) or both paint and bgPaint

    (dashed lines). The look of the line is controlled by joinStyle, capStyle,

    lineWidth and lineStyle.

    `lineStyle' can be one of #solid, #dashed, #doubleDashed

    where: #solid        - is for solid lines, drawn with the current paint color 

	   #dashed       - for dashed lines, where only the on-dashes are drawn

			   with the current paint color

	   #doubleDashed - dashed lines, draws on-dashes with paint color,

			   off-dashes with bgPaint

    for example:

									[exBegin]

	|v|

	v := View new.

	v openAndWait.

	v paint:(Color red) on:(Color blue).

	v displayLineFrom:(10@10) to:(90@90).

	v lineStyle:#dashed.

	v displayLineFrom:(90@10) to:(10@90).

	v lineStyle:#doubleDashed.

	v displayRectangle:((5@5) corner:(95@95)).

									[exEnd]

    changing the line-width:

									[exBegin]

	|v|

	v := View new.

	v openAndWait.

	v paint:(Color red).

	v displayLineFrom:(20@20) to:(80@80).

	v lineWidth:5.

	v displayLineFrom:(80@20) to:(20@80).

	v lineWidth:8.

	v displayRectangle:((5@5) corner:(95@95)).

									[exEnd]

    with wide lines, the corners (of polygons or rectangles) can be

    one of the joinStyles: #miter, #bevel, #round. The default is #miter.

									[exBegin]

	|v|

	v := View new extent:200@200.

	v openAndWait.

	v lineWidth:15.

	v paint:(Color red).

	v displayRectangle:((65@65) corner:(135@135)).

	v joinStyle:#bevel.

	v displayRectangle:((45@45) corner:(155@155)).

	v joinStyle:#round.

	v displayRectangle:((25@25) corner:(175@175)).

									[exEnd]

    the endPoints look is controlled with capStyle;

    possible values are: #notLast, #butt, #round, #projecting.

    The default is #butt. 

    #notLast is mostly useful when exoring (inverting): it will not draw the

    endPoint, to allow another line to join the previous line without inverting

    this point twice. (See the X manual for more info).

									[exBegin]

	|v|

	v := View new extent:200@200.

	v openAndWait.

	v lineWidth:15.

	v paint:(Color red).

	v displayLineFrom:(25@25) to:(175@25).

	v capStyle:#round.

	v displayLineFrom:(25@55) to:(175@55).

	v capStyle:#projecting.

	v displayLineFrom:(25@85) to:(175@85).

									[exEnd]

    You can use a bitmap as a point color:

    (this may be slow on some graphics devices, though)

									[exBegin]

	|v|

	v := View new extent:200@200.

	v openAndWait.

	v lineWidth:15.

	v paint:(Image fromFile:'granite_small.tiff').

	v displayLineFrom:(25@25) to:(175@25).

	v capStyle:#round.

	v displayLineFrom:(25@55) to:(175@55).

	v capStyle:#projecting.

	v displayLineFrom:(25@85) to:(175@85).

									[exEnd]

    all views support a translation and scale, so you can draw in another

    coordinate system:

									[exBegin]

	|v|

	v := View new extent:200@200.

	v openAndWait.

	v displayForm:(Image fromFile:'SBrowser.xbm') x:10 y:10.

	v scale:(2@2); translation:50.

	v displayForm:(Image fromFile:'SBrowser.xbm') x:10 y:10.

	v scale:(0.5@0.5); translation:0.

	v displayForm:(Image fromFile:'SBrowser.xbm') x:10 y:10.

									[exEnd]

    if scaling is on, it is often useful to be able to draw individual

    things unscaled - this still translates the position, but

    uses the unscaled font (for example, to draw strings in a graphic):

									[exBegin]

	|v|

	v := View new extent:200@200.

	v openAndWait.

	v displayForm:(Image fromFile:'SBrowser.xbm') x:10 y:10.

	v displayString:'hello' x:50 y:40.

	v scale:(2@4).

	v displayForm:(Image fromFile:'SBrowser.xbm') x:10 y:10.

	v displayUnscaledString:'hello' x:50 y:40.

									[exEnd]

    Filled objects are drawin using the #fillXXX methods; for example,

    displayRectangleXXX draws the outline, while fillRectangleXXX draws a

    filled one:

									[exBegin]

	|v|

	v := View new extent:200@200.

	v openAndWait.

	v displayArcIn:(20@20 corner:50@50) from:0 angle:180.

	v paint:Color yellow.

	v fillArcIn:(120@120 corner:150@150) from:0 angle:180.

	v paint:Color red.

	v displayCircle:150@50 radius:30.

	v paint:Color blue.

	v fillCircle:50@150 radius:30.

									[exEnd]

    polygons:

									[exBegin]

	|v poly1 poly2|

	poly1 := OrderedCollection new.

	poly1 add:(10 @ 10).

	poly1 add:(100 @ 50).

	poly1 add:(50 @ 50).

	poly1 add:(20 @ 100).

	poly1 add:(10 @ 100).

	poly2 := poly1 copy.

	poly2 add:(poly2 first).

	v := View new extent:200@200.

	v openAndWait.

	v scale:2.

	v paint:Color red.

	v fillPolygon:poly1.

	v scale:1.

	v paint:Color blue.

	v displayPolygon:poly2.

	v scale:0.5.

	v paint:Color yellow.

	v fillPolygon:poly1.
