KG-Chart / StitchSketch blog

Here is the highlight of ver 1.52:

The primary goal of this project was of course the performance improvement.
This version is much better and most of the case it is very smooth - About x6 to x60 times faster than before.

Technically speaking, it is a switch from HTML5/Canvas/JavaScript to CoreGraphics/OpenGL ES2/C++.

A little bit change of look & feel.
For drawing tools, a color list is on the right side of the screen for easier selection of colors.


Now it is possible to resize the chart (Shrink/Enlarge the chart). (This is different from resizing a canvas size)


Due to improvement of graphics engine, it is now possible to do better real view.
A peg view added.
Beads view improved.



This helps you trance a photo and convert to a chart. You have to trace manually. You can change the transparency of the image.

Load a photo for tracing.
