B4J Code Snippet b4jVectEdit: CAD-interface development

Hi, All

It's my idea to create the interface of CAD software template version that can

• create the vector objects
• drag objects over the work area
• move the area
• click the objects, pins
• zooming the objects by the mouse wheel: by re-calculation of each object

It's just my first try to create the vector object editor, and i decided to stop development cross-platformerly (also for B4A)

But strange that if to use "test.bjl" (in the project Files folder) instead of creating the objects - the loaded layout is not zoomed.

It works. What is the test button for?
This kind of interface is a little bit like my modular system with drag and connection although the vector part is quite different.

Hello everyone.

Based on the following thread
https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/t...g-dragging-by-_touch-event.160800/post-986978

I have modified some lines of code for my need:

• All objects(b4xVectEdit_component) are created by code (Not by designer) on a panel created in the designer
• The size of the panel and the b4xVectEdit_component can be modified
• MouseClicked(SecondaryButtonPressed) changes the width to the height and vice versa (90° rotation effect)
  

I have only tested in B4J (For now)
All improvements are welcome

Thanks to peacemaker for the support
