Hi guys, i was doing some GUI experiment ( my favourite saturday hobby 😀 )
but i can't find the Area add module..it was used to be there...it's even indicated in the docs at the section concerning redraws... but i can't find it...

Where's Area add module?
From the original SynthMaker forum (2004–2014), with its members’ names and dates.

Is it the area union module you're looking for?

i don't know if it's the same... i'm looking for area add...that one mentioned in the docs .. where the redraw is explained... i'm guess that add is more like an "intersection" an inverted U set symbol.... an union should be the "sum" of 2 areas....
anyway is that area union the old "area add" ?
i guess we need jorge or malc to reply on this 🙂
mhhh

area union it's a sum as far as i see now... obviously if one of the areas is "included" in the other one... the result will be that the biggest area will be shown..

Perhaps the module was changed from add to union.. Adding areas may imply that you add each of the area 'values' together as in:
x1 + x2, y1 + y2, w1 + w2, h1 + h2...
In which case the new area may be totally unconnected to both previous areas.. A union makes more sense if you are overlaying areas..

yes i get it 🙂

I know theres been various modules changed and removed now, im guessing area add is one of them, it is probably like sambean suggests and got updated to area union. With the modules that got removed i think they remain still so that older schematics run still, so if you had a old project with it in then it will probably still be there 🙂

yes has been updated as area union... if you load the example schematic that you can find in doc at the re-draw chapter... the area add is loaded as area union...
mistery solved 🙂
