parentship

[Sebastian Gurin]

Hello all.

First of all I would like to congratulate raphaeljs authors for the
great work. Now my question. I need parent/children support for
raphaeljs visual elements (like xml elements does with, appendChild(),
removeChild() parentNode, etc). Does raphaeljs visual elements support
parentship stuff, or should I implement this by hand?

A simple use case would be putting some (children) elements inside a
(parent) element. If the parent is translated or rotated, then the
children are translated/rotated also.

thanks in advance. Any tip about how to accomplish this is
appreciated.

p/d: excuse me for my bad english.

We use the "grouping" concept in SVG/Inkscape. We use "set" to add to
these "collections".

thank you chasbeen. I'm trying to build a graphic editor framework for
javascript, based on GEF (www.eclipse.org/gef) .I'm using raphaeljs
for implementing the view part. Support for parent/children
relationship between visual elements is mandatory here, so I 'm
implementing an "composite element" (using Set internally)

thanks again!
