very WRONG! AOEIII does not work over IPX it works on TCP. All you have to do is allow your firewall to pass AOE II AND AND AND Microsoft directplay helper. Thats all no need to make further changes no static IP nor nothing. Why do you write if you don´t know!!

Hey, awesome tuturoail. Can this work with images?

Lets say I have an image, “imgCat” placed on the canvas. How can I put that into the above code so it makes the image draggable?

This is sad at the very least. So this is the future of the web. Over 200 lines of code to move 2 rectangles … Good for the user, killer for the programmer. I see where this is going. you can do this whit 10 lines of code in Flash

As I know, currently there is no some “Interactive Canvas” (no more, no less, no game engines, but drag-n-drop ability) framework for GWT. It’d be cool to have one.

The dblclick listener calls ‘addShape’

// double click for making new Shapes
canvas.addEventListener(‘dblclick’, function(e) {
var mouse = myState.getMouse(e);
myState.addShape(new Shape(mouse.x – 10, mouse.y – 10, 20, 20,
‘rgba(0,255,0,.6)’));
}, true);

The code for addShape is in the whole source file, I didn’t include it in the text of my tutorial:

CanvasState.prototype.addShape = function(shape) {
this.shapes.push(shape);
this.valid = false;
}

You can find the full demo source here: http://simonsarris.com/project/canvasdemo/shapes.html

Great tutorial! Really helpful. Can you explain where newly drawn/moved shapes are being added to the shapes array? I’m confused about where that’s happening.
