Eric McG Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Hi, I noticed the Canvas2D tutorial that was at http://doc.babylonjs.com/extensions/Canvas2D_home is no longer there. And it is not on in the extensions folder on github either (https://github.com/BabylonJS/Documentation/tree/master/content/extensions). Anyone know the status of the tutorial? Thanks!

Wingnut Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Hi Eric! https://github.com/BabylonJS/Documentation/commit/c3a2ffe70c0e80192a756499ef0b2746432d2af9 Not sure what the story is, but, Canvas2D might be going deprecated... at least temporarily. Its on-going development might have hit some unfortunate log-jams. Others may comment soon. Stay tuned. adam and JohnK 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adam Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Shouldn't they just be moved to the extension? Seems a little harsh to delete them. Wingnut 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingnut Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 And the doc deleter... is the guy who coded a competing/superseding GUI system. hmm. Unfortunately, deltakosh doesn't have a single cell of malicious intent in his entire body/brain, so we probably can't generate any juicy rumors/propaganda around this.

They were initially Believe the concern is lack of ongoing support for Canvas2D. Like all things github it is gone but not forgotten https://github.com/BabylonJS/Extensions/tree/master/canvas2D I never really did understand Canvas2D though did appreciate its capabilities. Whether there is anyone interested and capable enough to fork and take it on is an open question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GameMonetize Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 I was not intend to be harsh (clearly not) but having canvas2d in the doc (even in the extensions side of the house) was misleading for a lot of people. They were starting to use canvas2d and it is not a good idea as it is no more supported at all. I obviously have a copy of the documentation but in the meantime, just to avoid further questions ending in my inbox, I removed them from the doc website.
