i am working on a goniometer msp/UI object (aka vectorscope aka stereo phase meter aka etc ), which basically works! my problem is that i am currently stroking t_graphics paths for the drawing, and i am finding it to be a little sluggish for the amount of data i need to draw (due to a persistence feature i have included, which fades out old layers and looks cool).

before i abandon this approach for a bitmap-based approach, i thought i would try to make use of a method i found in the jgraphics header file, jgraphics_line_draw_fast.

looks promising, but when i build i get a link error that the symbol is not defined in the max framework i am linking against. darn.

any ideas? anyone else have this issue? my sdk version is 5.0.6r2 which seems to still be the latest?

an additional datapoint - running strings on the MaxAPI.lib file and grepping for fast, i see only the following symbols defined:

Thanks for noticing this. We are looking into exporting the function for Max 5.0.8.

jgraphics_line_draw_fast link error - another sdk bug?
