How makes scroll with a picture?

Post by Juan Carlos »

I have this doubt How makes scroll with a picture inside of litle window but no using the RapaGUI neither MUIRoyale, only with standard Hollywood commands, to move in a little window but with a big picture for example as a picture viewer.

I think he means following idea.

Lets say you have a Brush like this, represented by alphabets:

abcdefgh
abcdefgh

suppose your screen size is only 3x2 letters.

hence, you could display for example only:

abc
abc

now when you move toward right, by using display brushpart, you could now display different part of this picture, resulting:

bcd
bcd

going even more to right, you could displaybrushpart:

cde
cde

by otherwords, it would look like srcolling towards right, although in reality you are just showing different parts of a very big brush.

Like Bugala said, you just have to figure out which part of the picture is visible and then display that part using DisplayBrushPart(). That's how scrolling works. For some examples, take a look at the "SmoothScroll" example (part of GL Galore and RebelSDL) and the "BeastScroll" example (part of RebelSDL). It's really not difficult.

I need a easy example because I'm workinkg in a portable and easy PDF Viewer from your example and the problem is with the zoom in the page to move for the Brush 2 and you can see all page to maxime zoom.

Convert the page into a brush, then use DisplayBrushPart() as described.

If you have much free time and books with many good examples all is possible, in my case no.
