Jerome Peace commented on SQ-248:
---------------------------------

For 3.9 I made a snapshot morph function. It would take an image snapshot of any morph and store it in a subclass of ImageMorph. This subclass could be resized and put into a "pop-up" mode where you saw the original fullsized snapshot as long as the mouse was pressed.

Current work has made an animeMorph class which simply shows and hides its submorphs. Its purpose was to facilitate displaying gifs properly. It was made general enough that it would work for any displayable submorph.

What karl is describing sounds like wanting to save the vertices of a polygon morph in sequence over time and play them back. It would work for a limited number of cases and have difficulties for polygons with their own submorphs. So the first thing is to work a little harder on the use case/user story. Describe more fully what this would do and what limitations it would accept.

Would either of the two above senario's help?

Yours in curiosity and service, --Jerome Peace

> It would be cool to make it easy to capture different states in the PolygonMorph so they could be played back as a animation
