Excuse the one-day delay on my weekly update. I\u2019ve got good news, though. I got beveled squares working, just like I promised last week.<\/p>\n
I know what you are thinking. Only one week to implement the drawing of beveled squares? You must be like the fastest-est coder alive.<\/p>\n
Right. Amazingly enough, I did even more than those squares. LordHoto suggested that drawing triangles would be a nice -and obvious- addition to the vector renderer.<\/p>\n
I had to agree, so now the Vector Renderer has optimized algorithms for drawing triangles. I bet that will come in handy for scrollbars and dropdown menus.<\/p>\n
Next thing, the InterfaceManager class. I expanded it quite a bit, and after some design considerations, it turns out that the class replicates a lot of the functionality of the Theme class. This last class, however, will be scrapped on the final GUI, which leads me to a small design problem that will hopefully be solved soon.<\/p>\n
Talking about soon; let\u2019s sum up what\u2019s coming next week. To start off, exams. Yes, exams are still coming and there are two more weeks until this burden is over. That was a dramatization, by the way. It\u2019s not that bad.<\/p>\n
Also, the usual routine of answering death threats from my numerous enemies and overall staying alive. This always keeps me busy.<\/p>\n
And lastly, but not leastly (look, I made up a word), more code. The code week will start off with a development meeting with my mentor this afternoon, where hopefully we\u2019ll point down the design of the Interface Manager so I can keep hacking on it. In case you are wondering, the parser is delayed until the IM class is finished.<\/p>\n
Oh, and it\u2019s raining over here. It\u2019s raining a lot. And that\u2019s not the usual thing in summer. I\u2019m running out of clean clothes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
