Drawing to a PImage / Drawing offscreen
Sep 2nd, 2009, 9:29pm  
Hello, I'm looking for a way to draw to something off-screen (could be a PImage, I don't care) so that I can then copy it back on screen with some transformations applied. Specifically I'm going to splice up the constructed image into horizontal blinds so i can make the the image move each segment separately.

The problem is I can't figure out how (if possible) to use regular processing drawing methods (rect, text etc..) on a PImage. The only way to get that stuff on the image is to draw it on the main canvas and copy it, which wouldn't work because I want to keep the canvas clear until I'm read to draw back on it.

any solutions?
