BTW -- I suppose you're writing some code that allows filling a
rectangle with a pattern from an NSImage, right? Could you perhaps make
that a separate function or method in GSDrawFunctions? As NSColor
colorWithPatternImage: doesn't work right now, it'd be nice to have an
alternative.
Or maybe this could even be merged into the backend to make pattern
colors work? (Right now, you can create a pattern, but you can't "set"
it)
If you did that, there's a patch from me that implements the missing
pieces of NSProgressIndicator. You could extract the progress indicator
drawing code from that, change it to use your pattern drawing method and
move it into GSDrawFunctions and make the progress indicator call that.
That'd mean themeing would get us a fully working progress indicator as
well.
Or you could just say: I'll wait for Uli to do that once I've released
my code :-)
