I'm near to the solution

'arc takes radius argument as a pair! but 'circle takes radius argument 
as two decimal! - I think it's inconsistent

'arc is consistent with 'ellipse !!!

It is, however you can think of circle usually taking only one number 
to be the radius.

It's a handy alternative to ellipse (I haven't tried ellipse) which 
allows you not to need to use scale.

view layout [b: box navy 100x100 effect [draw [circle 30x50 19.5 
20.2 circle 60x50 19.5 20.6]] image b/size * 4 to-image b]

You can see the two ellipses are slightly different.

yes I understand, but when there's such a precision with cicrle, 
why it's not same with 'arc?

you can get it using    scale 0.1 0.1    for example.

sometimes it's handier with pair!s, sometimes it's handier with pairs 
of decimal!s

OK, but I still think that 'arc, 'circle and 'ellipse should have 
radius parametr in same form.

pair! with decimal precission would be nice

Ah, but that's the thing... :)

Adding a new datatype is a major extra body of code. And with SCALE 
we really don't need it.

I know I know, it was ust a small dream ;)

but still - I think that 'arc, 'circle and ellipse should have same 
type parameteres

for radius

I've just found in the documentation that 'arc in 'shape uses two 
decimal!s and not one pair!. And now tell me it's NOT confusing :)))

Circle fill and outline don't seem to match up quite perfectly.

img1: to-image layout/tight [image 40x40 effect [draw [pen black 
fill-pen leaf circle 20x20 19]]]

img2: to-image layout/tight [image white 40x40 effect [draw [pen 
black fill-pen leaf circle 20x20 19]]]
view layout [image 200x200 img1 image 200x200 img2]

You can see some light green pixels at top left of the outside of 
the circle, and at the bottom left, on the inside of the circle.

I wonder if this is a rebol agg implementation issue or an agg issue.

I believe that's a known issue Anton.

Yes, known issue.

ok, so I assume Cyphre is on to it already.

Shadwolf, you will find it much easier to work from this style:

do http://www.lexicon.net/antonr/rebol/gui/demo-direction-pointer.r

Anton, yes, this is known issue. This will be fixed in the next version.

Shadwolf: I analyzed your SVG example with nested MATRIX command 
and found little bug in matrix calculation. Thanks for pointing this 
out! I know the solution so it will be fixed in the next Rebol View 
build.

Note: The bug is related only to MATRIX command. TRANSFORM/TRANSLATE/ROTATE/SCALE 
works ok.

Dide, I think it failed to load direction-pointer.r file. Just try 
again until it works ! :)

Hum, your script search for the file in our Rebsite index.r file, 
so I must see it in the Desktop, isn't it ?

If yes, I see a %direction-box.r, but no %direction-pointer.r icon.

No. It is not indexed. Actually, quite a lot of my scripts are not 
indexed :-(

(but I am working on that).

Sorry but tried 20 times and still the error

It works at home :)
I wonder why it didn't at work!

Cyphre Great !!!! I'm happy to have found a difficult bug regarding 
MATRIX in AGG/DRAW :) I hope this will be solved as soon as possible. 
I all cases tahnk you to have take the time to scout my problems 
:)

mmm weird :)

instead of using matrix i can translate it into scale rotate and 
translate value so ...

????

SVG matrix (a b c d e f) -> AGG scale [a d] rotate [b c] translate 
[e f] can I do this ???

matrix is 3X3

like that :
[a c e]
[b d f]
[0 0 1]

where couple AD = scaling BC= rotating EF = translating

Can't 'transform be used for doing all that ?

Dide, perhaps at work you have not updated your reboltech index.r 
file for a while, and it still points to my old rebsite.
Try this at work:
	load-thru/update http://www.reboltech.com/index.r

It was probably that ;-)

Don't know if transform REBOL/AGG command can do this 

I not enoght skilled in AGG to answer ... I will try to use transform 
instead of matrix

it's yet a kind of miracle for me totally noob in AGG and in SVG 
to have arrived to the actual point of the svg renderer. Lot of code 
and ideas have helped me a lot Ashley is trully a idea fountain. 
Those idea only claim to be worked again and again to arrive to a 
very very good and usefull tool
