What's new in version 1.3f
- Graphics Commands
New commands:
Arc draws arcs and circles.
SetTypeSize sets the size of type drawn with GraphicsType.
StrokePath allows you to stroke text, i.e., outline text.
TextBox returns a rectangle describing the 'size' of the text. - File Commands
New commands:
Commands to open, close, read, write, files.
Commands to set current directory, list current directory. - Miscellaneous Commands
New commands Date and Time.
- Animation
Quicktime movies can be created by taking a sequence of snapshots of the graphics window.
- Help
Many tutorials have been added to the help menu.
You can look up a command in help by command-double-clicking on it in the main text window. - Procedure Window Changes
The text view in the Procedures window now demonstrates a certain amount of syntax highlighting - brackets, numbers, and operators are in various colours. This behaviour can be turned off in the preferences dialogue.
Procedures can be dragged from the Procedures window of one document and dropped into the Procedures window of another. Procedures within one procedures window can be reordered by dragging.
Right-clicking in the procedures table-view brings up a context-sensitive edit menu (cut, paste, etc). - Preferences
A preferences window has been added. The turtle attributes (transparency, size, etc.) have been moved into this window and so are now global across documents.
The preferences window also includes attributes for editing in the Procedures window. By default, editing in the procedures window is in a fixed-pitch font and has syntax highlighting. These can be changed. - Bug Fixes
Fixed a crash when using Fillin.
Improved accuracy of SVG paths. Previously was using integers rather than floats. Inaccuracy was obvious under high magnification.
