rotate() behavior

Posted by freder on Jun 18, 2007

hello there!

I'm using version 2.0b1 in windows and the behavior of rotate() puzzles me:

B = 400
H = 400
size(B, H)
translate(B/2, H/2)
 
NUM = 40
ANGLE = 360.0 / (NUM-1)
 
fontsize(20)
 
for i in range(NUM):
    
    # text works 
    text('+', 100, 0)
    
    # ovals don't
    oval(120, 0, 10, 10)
    
    rotate(ANGLE)

this works the way I expect it to with text but not with ovals - what's the deal? am I missing something?

thank you

freder

Hi,

NodeBox 2.0b1 is not supported, because a lot of the functionality is missing, such as correct transformation behaviour.

We currently do not have plans to work on a Windows version.

so what about nodebox (2 and) 3 -- is it actively developed? and is it going to be platform independent?

if possible I would probably like to contribute to the project.
