Hi,
Can I change the extension imageen uses to something else. If I save as *.abc for example, will it still recognize it as an imageen layered image?
I have to create other types of layers that are based on bitmap layers, but contain a bunch of custom data in order to show my own properties and such to be able to recreate the bitmap. I did see the demo on storing customer data.
But I may change the custom data in the future as new features are added and such. I am wondering what is the best way to deal with changes so my users don't have too. I don't want to have file types *.ab1, *.ab2 and so on. The imageen layers will not be complicated or big and there won't be many of them. I am wondering if I should stream the data to a sqllite database and store each layer as a blob (json or xml) or something, that way new fields can be added easily and be loaded with default values if they are not present. There would be two blobs per layer(bitmap if one is used, and some text format on how to deal with the bitmap or the settings to recreate the text, shape or line layers). Do you think this approach will work? Any other recommendations?
How does imageen deal with changes between imageen versions?
Thanks, Marc
