putpixel on Canvas X by Actor Y

[asmodeus]

There are some functions where I can say to which Actor it should happen, such as:

Code: Select all

ChangeZDepth("myActor", 0.500000);


But there are also some functions, where I can't. Some of them are the drawing functions:
setpen(), putpixel(), lineto() etc.
Is is possible, that I can set the pen of my Canvas called "MyCanvas" by the view?
I tried this:

Code: Select all

MyCanvas.setpen(255, 0, 0, 0, 1);


but it doesn't work.

Is there any way to do this, except of sending activation events or something like this?

i would send a timer its probably the best way. Once you created the timer normally, you can then call it in script with a minimum time of 1 ms. and at 60 fps that's less than 1/2 frame, so its virtually instant.
