Drawing on the screen

[MonaA]

I am still new to PhoneGap, and the specification I was given today is
to draw lines on the screen in order for doctors to explain a
procedure from a picture or video. So, I need to know how to go about
it. How do you draw on a screen? Is there a plugin that I need to
include?

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi MonaA,

Your best bet would be to use a canvas element.

Here's an example web app, but you can use the same code for PhoneGap:

hi,

Thanks, but this won't draw on top of a video. Or I am not doing it
right. It works though. I wonder what else I can use. Objective C
somehow?

Yeah Objective-C. Video is always on top of everything in a UIWebview (at least on iOS it is).

Any tutorials that anyone know of or anyone has done this in their
phonegap app?

Shaz was saying that video is always on top in PhoneGap so you won't
be able to use a canvas element so you are going to have to either
code a module in Objective-C in PhoneGap or just use Objective-C for
the entire project - you can't do what you want to do straight out the
box.
