Shoes and Shoes Manual code samples #317

Closed IanTrudel closed 7 years ago

IanTrudel commented 7 years ago

Several methods are missing code samples in Shoes Manual.

Adding roughly 15 code samples to the Shoes Manual. See following commit.

The short lived animated Shoes splash screen is back as a expert-curve-animation.rb sample. image

A slightly updated curve_to sample to display control points (as ovals) in simple-curve-control-points.rb. image

IanTrudel commented 7 years ago

Adding expert-curve-control-points.rb featuring fully interactive control points.

The Shoes Manual on Shape refers to line_to, move_to, curve_to and arc_to but none of them are described in details, nothing about the parameters.

Added good-path-animation.rb sample demonstrating how to create and follow a path with an animated object.

Going a little crazy? Also works. image

to_pattern() method in both border and background has no code sample.

IanTrudel commented 7 years ago

@ccoupe I documented both to_pattern methods (background, border) but there is something fishy about it. Background and border are actually patterns, referring to them directly will return a pattern, so to_pattern is redundant. Shouldn't it be deprecate or removed from Shoes?

The only relevant to_pattern might be for Color since the class does not inherit from Pattern.

  cBackground = rb_define_class_under(cTypes, "Background", cPattern);
  cBorder = rb_define_class_under(cTypes, "Border", cPattern);
