| <h2>SWT example - Paint Tool</h2> |
| |
| <p> |
| This example demonstrates the use of SWT graphics operations in the form of a |
| rudimentary bitmap painting program. The Paint Tool implementation also |
| demonstrates a mechanism for managing timed GUI operations in the background |
| that are triggered by user input. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Select a tool with which to draw in the drawing area. There are a number of tools |
| to choose from on the toolbar. To change the color selection, click on a color in the |
| palette below the drawing area; left-click to set the foreground color, right-click to set the |
| background color. |
| </p> |
