Graf Sys 20 P

Dear Moderators, enclosed please find GrafSys 2.0. Please note that the 2.0 release does not replace the 1.x version since it is very different. What is 3D GrafSys 2.0 ====================== GrafSys is a hierarchical object-oriented class library for THINK Pascal. It is designed to facilitate easy 3D graphics and animations in your programs. GrafSys supports full 3D control of graphical objects and electronic eye. Graphical objects can be independently rotated (around arbitrary axes), translated and scaled. Objects can inherit transformations (rotation, scaling and translation) from other objects. GrafSys supports dynamic (i.e. on-the-fly) and multiple inheritance of transformations and an unlimited number of so-called operators (matrices) per object. The GrafSys provides objects for 3D points, lines and whole objects that can contain up to 8000 lines in full RGB color and more than 250'000 points. GrafSys also supports ultra-fast polygon filling using the triangulation approach. With it you can easily implement hidden-surface removal. Designed for fast and simple to program animations, GrafSys supports an AutoErase feature where the object automatically erases its previous image before redrawing itself. For flicker-free animations GrafSys also provides easy to use Off-Screen bit map handling. GrafSys is a combination of procedures and a powerful, extensible class library that can be easily curtailed to your specific needs. For example the general-purpose 3D object 'TSObject3D' understands over fifty messages for such diverse things as building a point/line database, rotating and drawing itself.
