Here’s a doodle from an exploration into creating a vector/raster hybrid drawing program that focuses on recording history of brush strokes. Added an option to output the sequence and this is a random doodle I was using to test fitting the output to canvas etc.

This is one of several drawings programs I’ve been creating to explore various aspects of raster and vector drawing and animation.

It has some nice potential for Undo/Redo/History stacking which is what I am playing back here but as a vector drawing program it also has some basic transform capabilty for moving, scaling, rotating selected strokes. I still need to press into Named Groups so that users can organize things and manipulate groupings. Another application that allows multiple files to be viewed at once is out there on the horizon. An ‘action’ file would then be nice to allow interpolation adjustments between these key frames of data

In the process of trying to improve SVG export I broke that functionality. Whoops!

The list of things that need to be added is long but the main purpose is to explore and learn.

I’ll be sharing what I learn as I go so I hope you’ll join me in the adventure.
