I am making modifications to the scaleBy: method in
class Path. That method is scaling points but does not use the
class Point scaleBy: method and I think that it should.
When I look at allImplementors of scaleBy: I am confused as to
what the most correct object is which should be included in
the selector. Different methods seem to expect (or accept) different
objects: aPoint, aFactor, aScale.
Since scaleBy: (and transformBy:) exist to support
WindowingTransformations, and its checkScale: method says
--- begin quote
checkScale: aScale
"Convert aScale to the internal format of a floating-point Point."
| checkedScale |
checkedScale _ aScale asPoint.
^checkedScale x asFloat @ checkedScale y asFloat
--- end quote
it seems to me that scaleBy: aFloatingPointPoint should be the
standard. Yes? No? Maybe?
Thanks,
