Q: How can I syncronize the point number?
sun...@cad.strath.ac.uk
I got a very strange thing with following code.
(array-total-size stroke-array-x) and the actual number of 'stroke-array-x'
does not match as below (I found this strange result with 'stroke-limit' in
two different setting). -----------------------------------------------------
2 > stroke-limit 33 <-- here, stroke-limit indicates actual points number. 2

<-- here, actual number is 34 rather than 33! 2 > (array-total-size

------------------------------------------------------
It seems that if I draw a stroke longer, then the gap becomes bigger. This
is strange... I don't understand why this happen... it should be same. Is
this related to the time of 'mouse-down-p' ? If so, how could I make the
number identcal between 'stroke-array-x' and (array-total-size
stroke-array-x)? Thanks for your help.

Sorry about ugly format... (I hate Netscape news service..)
I post again with different newsgroup software,
so hope this time is better. =)

I make the number identcal between 'stroke-array-x' and
(array-total-size stroke-array-x)?
p.s During I reposting this question, I thought maybe this happened
because of the initial element-type of the array.. I mean maybe the
stroke coordinates not always be an integer (I am not sure this is
right). If system got the point as (3, 1.5) then this cannot put in
the array? Is this the reason that the difference between the
'array-total-size' and actual stroke points number?
But hyperspec told me that the element-type is automatically
adjustable...
Thanks for your help.

One more question is...
Is it possible to set the element-type as multi-mode?
I mean, is it possible to accept an integer and float as well?
I tried to run with float element-type, but it didn't work because the
first point was integer.
I am thinking... if the array can't accept float point such as (3, 1.5),
then why the array-total-size is bigger than actual points number...?
There must be a reason.. but can't feagure out... :(

How about reading the documentation for vector-push-extend and other
stuff you are using? When the vector gets extended, it isn't necessarily
adjusted by just one item, it may expand by a larger,
implementation-dependent chunk at once. array-total-size returns the
size of the array, also including those parts of it you have not yet
used.
fill-pointer might give you more useful results in this context.

Yes, (fill-pointer array) gives me exact number of points.
Thanks alot. =)

If you don't request a specific type, you get an array that can hold
any Lisp value. It is usually a mistake to request specific types
unless you know it will have performance benefits, just like it is
usually a mistake to declare the type of arguments to functions until
you know what you _won't_ need.
