Next steps (again, help much appreciated!):
- add more GraphicPrimitive generators, complete up to a state that
the filter at least covers what the current direct canvas renderer
delivers:
* clip regions
* text rendering - it's parsed, but graphic primitive generation is
missing
* gradients/hatches
That's now done to a point where we're ~on par with the old renderer's functionality - thx to Patrick, Noel and Armin for all the nice work!
- once this works, cut over to new impl, bin the old code in cppcanvas (there's sadly a small amount of duplicate code now in the parsers) - iteratively expand, to cover near-100% of EMF+ (mostly lacking around gradients & effects): * more complex fill types like bitmaps/tiles * path gradient * xor & stuff
That cut-over has now happened with https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=ebc11ae0b132eefd3b1b1a837a8d0ad3ba73b460 , also killing the functionality to compare the two renderers - if you still need that, it's a rather smallish revert for now. Next up is cleansing the old renderer under cppcanvas, I suspect there's some easy wins there for easy hackers. :) Cheers, -- Thorsten
