@tusharhero@mathstodon.xyz I wasn't working on a full drawing API. The feature that I actually wanted to propose was a "memimage", since this enables plenty of use cases. So this was kind of a miscommunication from my side when I initially called the feature "canvas". A full drawing API could then be implemented on top. We could try multiple different APIs, since there are many different high-quality drawing libraries we could take advantage of. See https://yhetil.org/emacs-bugs/87jyuux3qx.fsf@daniel-mendler.de/

@minad@mastodon.world @tusharhero@mathstodon.xyz @pkal@social.sdfeu.org Indeed. Looks like from Eli's latest response that he's fine with the patch as long as it also provides a way to create and save the canvas from elisp. But should we do that or go the memimage route?
