Current "we take things for granted these days" discovery: QuickDraw doesn't have a way to rotate stuff.
If you want to rotate a PICT 180°, you either have to rasterise it offscreen and read the pixels back in reverse, or you can try using a “picture comment" to get the _printer_ to apply the operation.
And "it is impossible to determine which picture comments are supported by the driver of the current printer”. Helpful.

So now, I'm reverse engineering the Claris Works comments for gradients in Apple QuickDraw pictures.

I added a small python script to extract PICT files from DeRezed source archives.
This was primarily meant as a way to get me more samples of _interesting_ QuickDraw files, but maybe it can be useful for others.#quickdraw #retrocomputing #classicmac

For my QuickDraw renderer, I'm looking for a Pict file with an embedded ColorSync profile, would anyone have such a file?

Kopf hinter #Quickdraw:
#Entwickler Bill #Atkinson mit 74 Jahren verstorben
Durch seine #Arbeit an #Quickdraw und #Macpaint gilt er als wichtiger #Apple- #Entwickler. Nun ist #BillAtkinson an Bauchspeicheldrüsenkrebs verstorben.
#SteveJobs holte Atkinson als Mitarbeiter Nr. 51 zu #Apple und zum ersten Entwicklungsteam der Firma. Dem #Programmierer ist die #Quickdraw- #Bilschirmtechnologie mit ihren auffälligen abgerundeten Ecken zu verdanken.

Took advantage of the long week-end to make a new release of my personal project: QuickDraw viewer, a tool to visualise and convert QD images used on old Macintosh computer into something modern like PDF or PNG.
This was mostly a maintenance release, switching to Swift 6 and adding the relevant synchronisation annotations. It's far from perfect but it works. I also improved the localisation, and some the documentation.

In honor of Bill Atkinson, I’ve been reading the QuickDraw source code released by CHM and writing a little C implementation of his Region structure, which was an incredibly elegant solution to a problem so many people working on window systems never even realized they had. RIP Bill. #retrocomputing #BillAtkinson #QuickDraw

Reactions from the assistance during Bill Atkinson's presentation of MacPaint are a strong reminder of the technical prowesses he did in his code to sublimate the hardware capabilities available at the time.

I’m not a fan of self-boosting, but I realised I was remiss in not putting some hashtags on this post after it started gaining the small amount of traction it has.
For those who boosted or liked the original, I’m not asking or expecting a repeat. I just hope with these hashtags it gets a little more traction to acknowledge the genius of #BillAtkinson, who affected so many lives through the genius work he did.
I know he impacted many aspects of my life through the work he did on the Mac, the original System, and MacPaint, and it seems many others were similarly impacted.
It’s been truly inspiring for me to see Mac legends talk how he put the lie to the saying “Never meet your heroes”, as he seemed to have been a hero to many, and never a disappointment in person.
RIP, Bill. :alogo6:
