This repository is a little case-study to implement a painter (canvas) with the Slint GUI Toolkit. The drawn objects are not selectable or changeable, as this approach draws the paths directly to an image buffer via tiny-skia. This is my first contact working with Slint.
Features:
- 🔧 different brushes: Freehand, Line, Rectangle, Ellipse
- 💡 path preview
- 📝 change brush size
- 🎨 change brush color (not in GUI - color picker missing)
- 🔄 undo and redo all operations
Annoyances:
- 💥 fixed dimensions (at creation time)
- 💥 touch area and displayed paths differ when the window is resized
- 💥 no operations on individually drawn objects
- 💥 tiny-skia engine may be slow in the path preview
- 💥 unclear how to create a reusable slint component out of that 😕
Simply use cargo to run this example
cargo run --release
