Hwp_VectorGFX

vectorgraphics.hwp
==================

This plugin contains a vector-drawing engine based on cairo. To make Hollywood
use this vector-drawing engine instead of its inbuilt engine, use the following
command before calling any functions of Hollywood's vectorgraphics library:

    SetVectorEngine("vectorgraphics")

After this call, all vectorgraphics commands will be redirected to this plugin.

To test this plugin, run the "VectorTest" and "VectorTest2" examples that come
with the Hollywood distribution.


History
=======

Version 1.3:    (24-May-26)
- New: Version string in the binary contains the precise CPU arch specification
  now, e.g. "x64-linux" instead of just "Linux"
- New [Linux]: Added build for the Linux arm64 platform
- New [macOS]: Added build for macOS arm64 (Apple Silicon)  
- Change: Amiga installer will now also copy the plugins for all platforms to
  the linker plugins directory so that they can be easily linked to executables 

- Change [iOS]: Added arm64 build for the iOS simulator and removed x86 build
for
  the iOS simulator because the iOS simulator is no longer compatible with x86
- Change [Android]: Removed build for 32-bit softfloat ARM; nobody uses this any
  longer these days
- Fix: The plugin will no longer crash when using Miniwood; note that for vector
  text the plugin requires "text" library (not "text-lite"!)  
- Fix: Text in the vector path sometimes got cut off when a transformation was
  applied to the vector path
