Hello Alfonso,<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 10/17/06, <b class="gmail_sendername">Alfonso Baqueiro</b> <<a href="mailto:abaqueiro@gmail.com">abaqueiro@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</span><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
The canvas component is very promising, but the lack of drawString method could be a great error for its success, this lack is a huge limitation, how could you resolve this problem?<br>
</blockquote></div><br>I believe that some people's reason for not wanting to add it was because of Accessibility concerns.<br>
<br>
Although normal text in a webpage... or even a text image (with the
"alt" attribute filled in properly) could be "read" by a person with
disabilities, text embedded in the canvas element could not.<br>
<br>
Perhaps people need to think about how to add Accessibility to the canvas while allowing a "drawString" procedure.<br>
